Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices sourdough bread
- 1 medium ripe avocado
- 2 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Salt (to taste)
- Black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Start by gathering all necessary ingredients. Slice the avocado in half and remove the pit. Use a fork to mash it lightly, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Spread a thin layer of unsalted butter on one side of each slice of sourdough.
- On the unbuttered side of one slice, layer a slice of cheddar cheese, followed by the mashed avocado. Place another slice of cheddar cheese on top. Finish with the second slice of sourdough, buttered side facing out.
- Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Carefully place the sandwich in the skillet and press down gently. Grill for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip the sandwich to toast the other side, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until perfectly browned and cheese is melted.
Notes
Serve with tomato soup or a side salad for a classic comfort combo. Don’t forget to season the avocado for maximum flavor!
