Servings: 1

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 sprouted whole wheat bread
  • 8 oz. sliced provolone
  • 2 medium sliced avocados
  • Sriracha (to taste)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil on one side of each slice of bread. Turn the bread oil-side-down on a cutting board and build your grilled cheese sandwich by placing one slice of provolone on each slice of bread.
  2. Onto half of the stacks, place 4 or 5 slices of avocado, and on the other half, squeeze some sriracha. Bring the two stacks together to form the sandwich. (The order starting at the top is olive oil, bread, cheese, avocado, sriracha, cheese, bread, olive oil.)
  3. Plug in your waffle maker and set the slider to medium. Allow the appliance to preheat; the green light will illuminate when it’s ready.
  4. Place each sandwich onto 1/4 of the waffle grid. Pull the lid down. Depending on the thickness of your bread, the lid probably won’t close all the way. That’s fine! Just give it a little gentle pressure and then let the sandwiches cook for 4 minutes.
  5. The green indicator light will let you know when they’re ready. Lift the lid and remove the grilled cheese sandwiches. Allow them to cool for 2 minutes.
  6. Cut them in half and serve with a few extra slices of avocado and some extra Sriracha.
