How to Make Avocado Tomato Grilled Cheese Sandwich

1. In a small bowl, mash 1 ripe black Haas avocado with 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon cumin (optional, omit for kids), and 1/4 teaspoon salt until smooth.
2. Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley and set aside.
3. Spread 2 tablespoons of softened butter on one side of each of four bread slices.
4. Top two of the buttered bread slices with 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese of your choice).
5. Spread half of the avocado mixture evenly over the cheese.
6. Top with 2-3 slices of tomato (about 1/2 cup sliced tomatoes).
7. Add the remaining two buttered bread slices on top, buttered side facing outwards.
8. Heat a large nonstick griddle or 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
9. Add sandwiches to the griddle. Cook for 4-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey, pressing down gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking and browning.
10. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
