Today was my actual birthday and there's nothing I love more than a good sandwich, so it worked out perfectly that it was Sandwich Sunday!
Avocado, Tomato, and Mozzarella Grilled Cheese
recipe from: http://www.eatandexercises.net/avocado-mozzarella-and-tomato-grilled-cheese/
You don't really need a recipe for this one...the title is pretty self explanatory. However, I made some baked sweet potato wedges with a garlic-avocado aioli dipping sauce to go with it and those do need a recipe (you can get it here: https://cafedelites.com/2015/06/05/crispy-sweet-potato-wedges-with-garlic-avocado-aioli/). I think I over-cooked the sweet potatoes a little, but they still tasted good, were well seasoned, and were perfect with the garlic-avocado aioli.
As I was eating this, I had a genius idea...next time instead of just using slices of avocados on the sandwich, I would spread this aioli on it to add flavor to what otherwise is a slightly bland sandwich.
Grades:
Megan - A- (I thought the sandwich was a little bland. Put the aioli on it and it would be perfect! Otherwise I think some pieces of fresh basil would be great on it too.)
Noelle - C- (Noelle loves grilled cheese. She loves tomatoes. And she loves avocados. I thought for sure this would be a win in her book. Instead, I think she was a little weirded out by them all being together in a sandwich. Also, she was still sick, so who knows if that had anything to do with it. When I realized she wasn't going to eat her whole sandwich, I took the other half she hadn't started eat yet, because hello...deliciousness [me eating her dinner in addition to mine is probably why I can never lose any weight]. When I started eating that half she just kept saying "Mommy, I want yours!" I explained to her that it was exactly the same as she was eating, but she just couldn't shake wanting the half that I had instead. I didn't want to let her have a bite because of those sick germs she's got, so I didn't share my half and apparently her half just wasn't as good.)
