Avocado and lemon sandwich is a simple, nutritious, and delicious recipe perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a quick snack. Packed with healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals, this sandwich is not only satisfying but also highly refreshing due to the tangy twist from the lemon.

Ingredients:

1 avocado
200g
2 slices whole-wheat bread
54g
1 tsp lemon juice
5g
1 dash salt
0.40g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Avocado:
- Cut the avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit.
- Using a spoon, scoop the avocado flesh into a small bowl.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until it reaches your desired consistency. You can make it smooth or leave it a bit chunky, according to your preference.
2. Add Lemon and Seasoning:
- Add the teaspoon of fresh lemon juice to the mashed avocado. Lemon juice not only adds a zesty flavor but also prevents the avocado from browning.
- Sprinkle a dash of salt over the avocado mixture. Adjust the salt to taste.
3. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Lay out the two slices of whole-wheat bread. You can lightly toast the bread if you prefer a bit of crunch.
- Spread the avocado mixture evenly over one slice of bread.
- Place the second slice of bread on top of the avocado spread to form the sandwich.
4. Serve:
- Cut the sandwich in half diagonally if you wish, and serve immediately. Enjoy your fresh and healthy Avocado and Lemon Sandwich!

Tips:

- Choose a ripe avocado: Ensure the avocado is ripe by gently pressing it. A ripe avocado will yield slightly to pressure without being mushy.

- Toast the bread: For added texture and flavor, lightly toast the whole-wheat bread slices before assembling the sandwich.

- Season as you like: Feel free to add other seasonings such as black pepper, red pepper flakes, or garlic powder to customize the flavor to your preference.

- Add additional toppings: Consider adding other healthy toppings like tomato slices, cucumber, or baby spinach for extra crunch and nutrients.

This avocado and lemon sandwich is quick to prepare and offers a delightful combination of creamy and tangy flavors. By following the tips provided, you can personalize the sandwich to suit your taste and ensure a satisfying meal. Enjoy your healthy and delicious creation!
