Avocado Bacon Grilled Cheese (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Sandwich

01 - 2 slices seeded whole grain bread
02 - 2 slices cheddar cheese, each 28 grams
03 - 1/4 ripe avocado, thinly sliced
04 - 2 slices crispy cooked bacon, cut in half

→ Spread

05 - 8 grams melted butter (1/2 tablespoon)
06 - 8 grams mayonnaise (1/2 tablespoon)

# Instructions:

01 - Heat a sandwich maker or non-stick skillet over medium-high setting.
02 - Place one slice of cheese on one slice of whole grain bread.
03 - Arrange avocado slices evenly over the cheese, leaving a border around the edges.
04 - Top avocado with the second slice of cheese and distribute bacon evenly over the cheese.
05 - Position the remaining bread slice on top to enclose the filling.
06 - In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and mayonnaise. Spread half of the mixture over the top of the sandwich.
07 - Place sandwich into the preheated sandwich maker or skillet, buttered side down.
08 - Spread the remaining butter-mayo mixture over the unbuttered side.
09 - Grill for 2–5 minutes in the sandwich maker or 3 minutes per side in a skillet, until bread is golden brown and cheese is melted.
10 - Remove from heat, cut in half, and serve immediately while hot.

# Notes:

01 - For optimal crispness, use day-old bread and ensure the bacon is thoroughly cooked before assembling.
