For a richer flavor, try using a combination of Monterey Jack and Gruyere cheese. If you don't have mango jam, apricot preserves or orange marmalade make excellent substitutes. A sprinkle of chili flakes in the avocado mixture adds a delightful kick. Serve with a side of fresh fruit or a light salad for a complete meal.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare the avocado: Gently halve the avocado, remove the pit, and score the flesh in a criss-cross pattern. Carefully scoop the cubes into a bowl. (2 minutes)
02
StepCreate the fruit glaze: Place the mango jam in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until warm and slightly thinned, about 20 seconds. (2 minutes 20 seconds)
03
StepCombine avocado and glaze: Gently stir the warmed jam into the cubed avocado. Add lemon juice, red onion, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to your preference. (3 minutes)
04
StepPrepare the bread: In a separate bowl, mix the butter-canola oil blend and Dijon mustard until smooth. Spread this mixture evenly on one side of each bread slice. Turn the slices over onto a cutting board. (5 minutes)
05
StepAssemble the sandwich: Lay the Monterey Jack cheese on the unbuttered sides of two bread slices. Divide the avocado mixture evenly on top of the cheese. Gently top with the remaining bread slices, butter-side up. (7 minutes)
06
StepGrill the cheese: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan and cook on each side until golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. (13 minutes)
07
StepServe: Cut the grilled cheese sandwiches in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy the creamy, fruity goodness! (13 minutes 30 seconds)
