It has been three weeks, seven pounds, 120 hours of work, and one major thesis since I've last blogged. It feels like at least that long since I've had a decent meal. Now that life has kind of settled I think I deserve a little treat. Remember when I said that everyone was allowed to be a glutton? Well, today was the day. This is one of my go-to indulgence meals. Grilled cheese sandwich with guacamole. It's simple. It's easy. It's oh-so-yummy. It's just a small tweak on the grilled cheese with ketchup standard, but I think you'll agree it's a good tweak. And hey, avocado is considered one of the top super-foods so its at least half sinless.
Two slices of multigrain bread
Butter
Fresh cut slices of cheddar cheese
One ripe avocado
Half of a lime
Two teaspoons of chopped cilantro
Butter one side of each piece of bread. Place one slice of bread on a frying pan, butter side down. Place the cheese on top of the bread and cover with the other slice butter side up. Cook until both sides of toast start to brown and the cheese is melted.
I like to keep my guacamole simple: mash-up a ripe avocado in a bowl, squeeze half a lime, and sprinkle with cilantro.
