Equipment

1 skillet
1 spatula
measuring cups
measuring spoons

Ingredients

1/2-3/4 cup chunky homemade guacamole
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper to taste
4 slices Swiss cheese as desired
2 slices sturdy bread Texas Toast or homemade Parmesan Pine Nut Bread
1 tbsp. butter for frying

Instructions

Melt a tablespoon or so of butter in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
Lay bread pieces on counter.
Place Swiss cheese over top of each piece.
Sprinkle with pepper.
Spoon guacamole on one piece of the bread.
Invert remaining piece of bread so cheese is on top of the guacamole.
Grill sandwich in skillet about 5-10 minutes, covered, before flipping sandwich over and grilling the other side 5-10 minutes, covered.
Do not use high heat or bread will scorch.

Notes

NOTE: If the cheese hasn’t melted to your satisfaction, place sandwich on a microwavable plate and microwave 15-30 seconds on reduced power—about 80%.

NOTE: It is better to use a sturdy Artisan-type bread for this recipe. Regular white bread is too flimsy.
