Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized zucchinis
- 4 slices of whole wheat bread
- 4 tablespoons of cream cheese
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- Optional: your favorite sandwich condiments (mayonnaise, mustard, etc.)
Preparation
Step 1: Start by washing the zucchinis under running water. Trim the ends and cut them into thin slices. Set aside.
Step 2: Preheat your Olla GM at 180°C (356°F) for 5 minutes. Brush the zucchini slices with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place them in the Olla GM and cook for about 5 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly golden. Remove from the Olla GM and set aside.
Step 3: While the zucchinis are cooking, prepare the bread slices. You can toast them or leave them as is, depending on your preference. Spread a tablespoon of cream cheese on each slice.
Step 4: Now it’s time to assemble the sandwich. Start by layering the avocado slices on two slices of bread. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add a layer of cooked zucchini slices on top of the avocado.
Step 5: Next, add the thinly sliced red onion and tomato slices. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, you can also add your favorite sandwich condiments at this point, such as mayonnaise or mustard.
Step 6: Finally, place the remaining bread slices on top to complete the sandwiches. Press gently to hold everything together.
Step 7: If you prefer warm sandwiches, you can place them back in the Olla GM for a couple of minutes to heat through. Otherwise, they are ready to be served immediately.
Step 8: Cut the sandwiches in half or into quarters for easier handling. Serve as a light lunch or dinner option, or even as a tasty snack.
