🧾 Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 4 slices of bread (sourdough or your favorite) 🍞

  • 1 ripe avocado 🥑

  • 4 slices cheddar or mozzarella cheese 🧀

  • 2 tablespoons butter 🧈

  • Salt and pepper, to taste 🧂

  • Optional: tomato slices, fresh basil, or red pepper flakes for extra flavor

👩‍🍳 How to Make Avocado Grilled Cheese

1. Prep the Avocado

Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice thinly or mash slightly with a fork. Season with salt and pepper.

2. Assemble the Sandwich

Butter one side of each bread slice. On the non-buttered side, layer cheese and avocado. Add optional tomato or basil if using. Top with the other slice of bread, butter side out.

3. Cook the Sandwich

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook 3–4 minutes per side until bread is golden and cheese is melted. Press gently with a spatula to help it cook evenly.

4. Serve

Slice in half and enjoy warm!

🧡 Pro Tips & Tricks

  • Try different cheeses like pepper jack or gouda for flavor variations.

🥶 Storage Tips

Best served fresh, but leftovers can be wrapped and refrigerated for up to 24 hours. Reheat gently in a skillet to keep crispness.
