Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 4 oz sharp cheddar cheese (sliced)
  • 4 slices sourdough bread
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients by gathering everything on the counter.
  2. In a bowl, mash the ripe avocado until smooth yet slightly chunky. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Butter one side of each slice of sourdough bread. On the unbuttered side, layer mashed avocado and sharp cheddar cheese.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat and place the sandwich butter-side down. Grill until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes).
  5. Flip the sandwich carefully using a spatula and press down gently while cooking for another 3-4 minutes until both sides are crispy, and the cheese melts.
  6. Remove from heat, let cool slightly, slice in half, and serve warm.
