This gooey, flavorful sandwich combines creamy guacamole with melted cheese for the ultimate comfort food experience. Perfectly crispy on the outside and packed with fresh, zesty goodness inside, it’s a delicious twist on a classic grilled cheese.
Start by mashing the avocados in a big bowl. Then add the chopped onion, lime juice, jalapeño, cilantro, garlic, salt, and pepper. Give everything a good mix until it’s all well combined. Gently fold in the diced tomato last so it doesn’t get mushy.

Next, spread a generous amount of the guacamole onto two slices of bread. Lay two slices of Havarti cheese on top of each, then place the remaining bread slices over them. Don’t forget to butter the outside of each sandwich.

Cook's tip
- Use ripe avocados for the creamiest guacamole.
- Spread butter evenly on the outside of the bread for a golden, crispy crust.
