Grilled cheese. Most of us think of our moms' greasy, floppy American cheese-and-butter-filled fried white bread accompanied by canned tomato soup (sorry Mom!). But I have found a way to eat an old favorite while still getting plenty of nutrition and flavor.
Ingredients:
2 pieces of multi-grain, whole grain bread
1 Tbsp mayo (or substitute with my FAVORITE thing ever: Vegenaise)
2 slices of cheese (I used one slice of pepper jack and some shredded cheddar)
1 roma tomato
1/2 avocado
(The pictures you see here are of a half-sandwich I made, but the instructions are for a full sandwich.)
1. Preheat the oven to 450.
2. Slice the avocado and tomato.
3. Spread mayo on both sides of the bread and add the cheese slices, one to each side of the bread.
4. Pile the tomato and avocado slices on either piece of bread.
5. The easiest way to put the two slices together is to put the avocado side on top of the tomato side.
6. Put the sandwich on a baking sheet, and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the bread is toasty and the cheese is melted.
Enjoy!
I MISS your cooking!!!!!!!
