Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

1/2 large avocado, peeled
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 garlic clove, pressed
1 teaspoon minced jalape&;ntilde;o chili
8 slices good-quality whole wheat bread (each about 4x4 inches and 1/2 inch thick)
20 thin tomato slices
16 thin peeled cucumber slices
8 thin red onion slices
1 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro sprigs

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Using fork, mash avocado, lime juice, garlic and jalapeño in small bowl until almost smooth. Season guacamole with salt and pepper.

    Step 2

    Divide guacamole among all bread slices, spreading evenly (guacamole will be thinly spread). Place 5 tomato slices atop guacamole on each of 4 bread slices. Top each with 4 cucumber slices, then 2 onion slices, then cilantro. Top with remaining 4 bread slices, guacamole side down, pressing lightly. Cut sandwiches in half. (Can be prepared 3 hours ahead. Wrap in plastic; chill.)
