Grilled Two Cheese Avocado Sammie
When Kenya see's avocado or cheese in his school lunch, he immediately gets excited. There's nothing like these 2 nutritious creamy foods melted between crusty bread to keep a kid sated all day long. If you're looking for a school lunch recipe, I would give this idea a shot!

I'm confused by this as a lunch recipe. Do you prepare this in the morning and then put in his lunch box to eat cold? Sounds yummy, but not sure how it would hold up in a refrigerator for 3 hours. Thanks.
Yes I do, Kenya eats his lunch at room temperature. I put a cold ice pack in it as well.
Does it bother him if the avocado oxidizes and is a bit brown? I suppose tossing it with a bit of lemon juice would help that issue, but not sure if it would change the flavour too much.
I just tried one - used shredded cheddar cheese & onion with the avocado. It was yummy!
Looks delicious!
