Avocado Spread Preparation

Toasting the Sandwich
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt a tablespoon of butter. Place the sandwich in the skillet, pressing down gently with a spatula. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bread is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.
Finishing
  1. Carefully flip the sandwich over and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the second side is golden brown and cheese is fully melted.
Serving
  1. Remove the sandwich from the skillet, let it rest for a minute, then slice in half and serve warm.
