Ingredients

2 slices bread low-carb or sourdough
1/2 piece ripe avocado sliced
4 slices fresh mozzarella cheese
4 slices ripe tomato thick slices like Roma or Beefsteak
to taste salt
to taste freshly ground black pepper
to spread butter softened

Equipment

Non-stick frying pan or griddle
Flexible spatula
Sharp knife
Cutting board

Method

Butter both sides of each slice of bread with softened butter.
Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat and place one slice of bread, buttered-side down, in the pan.
Layer mozzarella cheese on the bread in the pan, then add tomato slices and avocado slices.
Season with salt and pepper, then place the second slice of bread on top, buttered-side facing up.
Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom slice is golden brown and crispy.
Flip the sandwich using a spatula and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes until it matches the first side in color and crispness.
Transfer the sandwich to a cutting board, let it rest for a minute, then slice diagonally and serve.

Notes

Use ripe but firm ingredients for the best texture. Medium heat is crucial; avoid high heat to prevent burning. Press gently on the sandwich after flipping to help layers bond. Feel free to customize with different types of bread and cheese. Best enjoyed fresh; if storing, wrap tightly and consume within a day for optimal taste.
