Ingredients
- 4 slices whole grain bread
- 1 cup low sodium soft cheese (such as ricotta or cottage cheese)
- 1 large ripe avocado
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices radish
- 0.5 thinly sliced cucumber
- 4 leaves fresh basil leaves
Directions
Step 1
Start by toasting the whole grain bread slices until they are golden brown and crunchy. This can be done using a toaster or an oven set to broil for a few minutes.
Step 2
While the bread is toasting, prepare the avocado by cutting it in half, removing the pit, and scooping the flesh into a small bowl. Add lemon juice and black pepper to the avocado and mash with a fork until you achieve a smooth consistency.
Step 3
Spread the low sodium soft cheese evenly on all toasted bread slices.
Step 4
On two slices of bread, layer the mashed avocado mixture on top of the cheese spread.
Step 5
Place thin cucumber slices and radish slices over the avocado layer for added freshness and crunch.
Step 6
For the finishing touch, add fresh basil leaves on top of the vegetables to enhance the flavor with a hint of aromatic herbs.
Step 7
Top each sandwich with the remaining slices of cheese-covered bread to make two completed sandwiches.
Step 8
Cut each sandwich in half diagonally for easy handling and serve immediately.
