  • 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Ingredients
  • Mash the avocado in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Slice the tomato thinly and pat with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

  • Place the remaining slices of bread on top, avocado side facing the filling.
  • Toast the Sandwich
  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add butter or oil and let it melt.
