Ingredients
  

2 slices of crispy sourdough bread

1 ripe avocado, sliced

4 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced

1 medium ripe tomato, sliced

2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves, torn (optional)

1 tablespoon olive oil or butter

Salt and pepper to taste

Balsamic glaze for drizzling (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Slice the avocado, fresh mozzarella cheese, and tomato. Tear the basil leaves into smaller pieces (if using). Lay everything out for easy access.

    Assemble the Sandwich: On one slice of sourdough bread, layer the sliced mozzarella cheese evenly, followed by the avocado slices, tomato slices, and basil leaves. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Top with the second slice of sourdough.

      Heat the Pan: In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter over medium heat.

        Grill the Sandwich: Once the oil is hot, carefully place the assembled sandwich in the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.

          Flip and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula and grill the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, pressing down gently to ensure even browning.

            Serve with Style: Once both sides are golden and the cheese is melted, remove the sandwich from the pan. Allow it to cool for a minute before slicing in half. Drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired.

              Enjoy: Serve your creamy avocado and mozzarella grilled cheese with a side salad or sweet potato fries for a complete meal.
