Instructions
- Spread butter on the outside of both bread slices.

- Layer mozzarella cheese, tomato, and avocado on top of the bread in the pan.
- Place the other slice of bread on top, buttered side up.

Notes
For best results, keep the tomato between the cheese and avocado layers to prevent ingredients from sliding out. Use thick multigrain or sprouted grain bread for sturdier construction. Pairs well with a bowl of soup.
