Sure! Here’s a recipe for Avocado, Mozzarella, and Tomato Grilled Cheese:
Ingredients:
- 2 slices of bread (your choice, such as sourdough or whole wheat)
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/2 cup fresh mozzarella, sliced or shredded
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- 2 tbsp butter (or olive oil for a healthier option)
- 1 tsp garlic powder (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh basil leaves (optional, for added flavor)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Ingredients:
- Slice the avocado, tomato, and mozzarella.
- If you like, you can also slice a few fresh basil leaves for extra flavor.
- Butter the Bread:
- Spread butter (or drizzle olive oil) on one side of each slice of bread. This will be the outside of the sandwich that hits the pan.
- Assemble the Sandwich:
- On the non-buttered side of one slice of bread, layer the avocado, mozzarella, and tomato slices.
- Sprinkle a little salt, pepper, and garlic powder on the tomato to enhance the flavor.
- If using, add fresh basil leaves on top of the tomato.
- Grill the Sandwich:
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, place the sandwich in the skillet with the buttered side down. Grill for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Flip the sandwich carefully and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Once both sides are crispy and golden, remove the sandwich from the skillet. Let it cool for a minute, then cut it in half to serve.
Tips:
- For extra creaminess, you can mash the avocado slightly before adding it to the sandwich.
- If you want a little more flavor, consider adding a drizzle of balsamic glaze after grilling the sandwich.
Enjoy your Avocado, Mozzarella, and Tomato Grilled Cheese! It’s a fresh, creamy, and savory twist on a classic favorite.
