Avocado Mozzarella and Tomato Grilled Cheese Recipe

Ingredients:

2 slices of bread (your choice — sourdough, whole wheat, etc.)

1 ripe avocado, sliced

2-3 slices fresh mozzarella cheese

2-3 slices tomato

1 tbsp butter (for grilling)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tsp balsamic glaze or pesto (optional, for extra flavor)

Instructions:

Prepare the Sandwich:

Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice of bread.

On the non-buttered side, layer slices of mozzarella cheese, avocado, and tomato.

Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

If you like, drizzle a little balsamic glaze or pesto over the filling for added flavor.

Grill the Sandwich:

Heat a skillet over medium heat.

Place the sandwich, buttered side down, on the skillet. Grill for 2-3 minutes until the bread is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt.

Flip the sandwich carefully and grill the other side for 2-3 minutes until golden and the cheese is fully melted.

Serve:

Once the sandwich is perfectly golden and the cheese is melted, remove from the skillet and cut in half. Serve immediately!

Tips:
For extra creaminess, add a spread of cream cheese or a layer of hummus inside the sandwich.

You can also add a handful of fresh basil for a caprese twist.

Try using grilled chicken or turkey for some protein.
