Recipe: Avocado Tomato Sandwich

Avocado Tomato Sandwich is a filling, delicious and healthy meal option especially for days when you don’t feel like cooking in summer. Best time to enjoy those fresh juicy tomatoes. When it comes to sandwiches, I love tomato ones, with avocado and the classic cucumber one. I bought those large juicy tomatoes on sale, yes went a bit crazy. Had an avocado that was ready to be eaten. And hubby had got some yummy sourdough bread. Put everything together to make a filling and healthy sandwich in a matter of few minutes.

Whenever I use an avocado for sandwiches, I don’t use butter. This makes the sandwiches healthier with good fat from the avocado. While hubby prefers closed sandwiches, I rather go for open sandwiches as that way I get to add more topping/filling!

When it comes to sandwiches Indian style my favourite is  Vegetable Masala Sandwich. It is usually prepared in a special sandwich chamcho as it is called in India. The sandwich maker works well over gas flame. Nowadays the shape of the chamcho or sandwich is square but years ago it use to be round. I have the round one, inherited from my mother in law. Unfortunately, I am not able to use on my induction stove.

    Now this is my kind of sandwich. I love that you used feta on it…a nice salty twist from the traditional mozzarella!
