Recipe Provided By the California Avocado Commission from a consumer submission
This Open Face Grilled Avocado Sandwich is "Food for the Gods". It is so good, that it probably should be labeled a "controlled substance" by the Food and Drug Administration! I have prepared this recipe hundreds of times as a young man growing up in Whittier, California, using tree-ripened Fuerte, Anaheim, and Lion avocados.
Ingredients
-
2.000
2
slices of 7 grain whole wheat bread
-
1.000
1
half lemon
-
1.000
1
Avocado -- preferred varieties are: Fuerte, Hass, or Anaheim.
-
0.000
Oregano
-
0.000
Freshly ground black pepper
-
0.000
Salt
Instructions
- Lightly mash avocado in a bowl, using a fork.
- Add a few drops of freshly squeezed lemon juice to mashed avocado.
- Add seasoning to taste (oregano, ground black pepper, and salt).
- Finish mashing avocado to blend ingredients.
- Toast two slices of bread in toaster.
- Apply a thick coat of the avocado to each slice of toast.
- Place the two slices of "avocado toast" in the broiler oven, and broil for two to three minutes with the door open. (The broiling time will depend on the oven and broiler setting.) Visual inspection will tell when broiling has reached "perfection".
*Large avocados are recommended for this recipe. A large avocado averages about 8 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.
