An Avocado-Licious Sandwich

I am posting this "recipe" because I somehow managed to live 24 years before I discovered what a wonderful addition avocados are to a sandwich. This is a quick, simple, satisfying sandwich for a hot summer day...or any other kind of day for that matter! Because there are so few ingredients, the quality of your bread and produce will affect the quality of the sandwich, so use good stuff :)

Ingredients

Makes 1 serving

  • 2 avocado
  • 1/2 roma tomato

Method

  1. Place the tofurkey (or turkey) slices on one slice of toasted bread.

  2. Place tomato slices on top of tofurkey, and sprinkle salt and pepper on them.

  3. Put the avocado slices on top of the tomato and put the other slice of toast on top.

  4. Cut in half, eat with fresh melon, and marvel at the glorious simplicity of summer food!

Cook's notes

  • Choose avocados that yield slightly to firm pressure for the perfect creamy texture.
  • Toast your bread until golden brown to create a satisfying crunch against the soft avocado.
  • Add a splash of fresh lime juice to keep the avocado from oxidizing and turning brown.

Easy swaps

  • Swap standard bread for a gluten-free loaf or a whole-grain wrap.
  • Add red pepper flakes or sliced jalapeños if you prefer an extra spicy kick.
  • Use sprouts or microgreens instead of traditional lettuce for an added nutrient boost.
