• 2 slices provolone cheese
• 2 tomato slices, patted dry
• 2 avocado slices
• 2 large fresh basil leaves

1. Place the bread slices on a flat work surface. Spread 1 tablespoon of butter evenly over one side of each slice of bread.
2. Warm a skillet over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes. Layer the sandwich as follows: Slice of bread, butter side down, 1 slice cheese, tomatoes, avocados, 1 slice cheese and slice of bread, butter side up.
3. Place sandwiche onto the hot skillet. Cook on each side for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until the bottom layer of cheese begins to melt around the edges. Cut in half and serve!
