The panini, originating from Italy, is a grilled sandwich that’s become a worldwide sensation. Our Turkey Avocado Panini brings a fresh twist, combining tender turkey slices, creamy avocado, and zesty mayonnaise, all nestled between two toasty slices of bread.

- 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
Instructions:
- Preheat your panini press or grill pan.
- Assemble your panini: Place a slice of cheddar cheese on one slice of bread, followed by turkey slices and avocado. Spread mayonnaise on the other slice of bread and place it on top.
- Brush the outside of the sandwich with olive oil.
- Place the sandwich in the preheated panini press or grill pan.
- Grill for 3-5 minutes, or until the bread is crispy and golden, and the cheese has melted.
- Remove from the heat, cut in half, and serve hot.
