Equipment

  • Panini Maker

Ingredients
  

  • 1 avocado mashed
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 4 slices bread we like whole grain or sour dough
  • 4 slices Colby jack cheese
  • 1 roma tomato sliced
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter softened

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, mix the avocado with the lemon juice and salt. Set aside.
  • Butter both slices of bread on one side and put together (butter sides together). Then you can build your sandwich on top of the non-buttered side facing up.
  • Layer ingredients in this order: 1 slice of cheese on the bread, 2 tomato slices, half smashed avocado, and another slice of cheese.
  • Repeat with remaining ingredients for second sandwich.
  • Heat a saute pan or panini maker over medium-low heat.
  • Lift up layered bread and place in heated pan or panini maker then place second piece of buttered bread on top (buttered side up).
  • When the bottom piece of bread is slightly browned, flip over and continue to grill until both sides are golden brown and the cheese is melted. If using a panini maker you won't need to flip it.
  • Remove the sandwich from the pan and repeat grilling for second sandwich.

Notes

Try using different types of cheese to change things up.
