Creamy, Crunchy Avocado Melt

Makes 2 servings

This sandwich is creamy, smoky, crunchy, with lots of textures and good flavors mingling together. It would be a great sandwich served cold (i.e. don’t bother to melt the cheese) in a pita, too.

ingredients

4 thick slices of whole wheat or multigrain bread
1 avocado, peeled and sliced
2 radishes, thinly sliced
8 slices of cucumber
a small handful of your favorite kind of sprouts, or two slices of lettuce
maple-smoked cheddar, such as Grafton Village (or just regular smoked or non-smoked cheddar)

directions

1
Preheat the broiler. Place the 4 slices of bread on a baking sheet, and top two of them with slices of the cheese.
2
Meanwhile, prep all your other ingredients so they’re ready to go.
3
Place the bread slices under the broiler for a few minutes, just until they’re lightly toasted and the cheese is melted. Remove the pan from the oven.
4
On top of the melted cheese, layer the avocado slices, radish slices, cucumber slices, and sprouts (or lettuce.) Season with salt and pepper. Top with the remaining slices of toasted bread, and serve.
