Avocado and Tomato Grilled Cheese Sandwich

This sandwich has all the cheesy flavor of grilled cheese, but with added benefits. Whole wheat bread provides filling fiber, avocado slices add healthy monounsaturated fats and a punch of antioxidants.

 

Ingredients:

• 1 teaspoon coconut butter or butter
• 2 slices whole wheat bread
• 2 slices sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/2 an avocado, sliced
• 1/2 a tomato, sliced

 

Directions:

• Heat a pan over medium-low heat.
• Brush coconut oil onto one side of a bread slice and lay into a pan, oil side down.
• Assemble the sandwich. (Bread, cheese, avocado, tomato, cheese, topped with a second slice of bread works great!)
• Lightly brush the top slice of bread with the remaining oil.
• Cook for about 2 minutes, or until bread turns golden brown and cheese begins to melt.
• Flip, and cook on the other side until bread is browned and cheese is melted. Cut in half and enjoy!
