This is one of those sandwiches that I ate quite frequently during my post-college days. I ate it quite a bit as a budget conscious strategy. Well, I'm still budget conscious. But at the time it was really a budget crunch especially with just having graduated.I think most of you readers know that I love avocado, so it should no surprise that I'd plop in between to slices of bread. It's actually better than my other sandwich option. A mayo sandwich. Can you guys what ingredients go into that? Anyway...it's always nice to revisit eats that I used to constantly eat on a nearly daily basis.
Makes 2 sandwiches
Tomato Avocado Sandwich
4 slices of bread
1 small avocado - sliced
1 small tomato - sliced
1/4 c pineapple tidbit - sliced
mayo
mustard
Note: You may pretoast your bread before assembling.
To make one sandwich:
Take two slices of bread. Spread a thin layer of mayo on one and a thin layer of mustard on the other.
Place half of the avocado slices over the mayo slice, followed by half of the tomato slices, and half of the pineapple tidbits. Top with the mustard slice of bread.
heat the sandwich in a panini press or skillet until the bread is toasted. If using a skillet (on medium heat), apply pressure with a place and a 12 oz can over it for 3-5 minutes. Flip and do the same for the other side.

Looks like a great snack. I used to make a similar sandwich when I was a student. different from yours, I make it with the combination of tomato, cucumber and cheese. Now I must try it with avocado.
So easy and yummy! I just had a sandwich for lunch with some honey mustard sauce and veggies :)
pineapple? ok then, i am so IN!
I'll take one for my breakfast please! :P
Simple and yummyy... lovely combination!!
So what exactly is a pineapple tidbit?
Love the old classic recipes -- when I was in college, I used to eat a ton of provolone grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch. Provolone isn't even the ideal cheese for grilled cheese, but I loved 'em!
I ate a tomato sandwich literally every day for 2 years at which point I OD'd on them and haven't touched them since. But this amazing picture makes me want to give them another try!
I want this sandwich for lunch today. I love avocado.
Avocado, tomato, and mayo is perfection. The pineapple is an interesting twist!
Jenn, your sandwiches lately are making me so hungry!!!
You already know I love avocado... Looks like a nice sandwich! Love the addition of pineapple... It's like a tropical salsa sandwich :)
this looks killer!! I grabbed your button, your welcome to come by my site and get my button and check out my new book
Nice addition of the pineapple! I don't think you can go wrong with anything avocado or tomato :)
(I might want cheese, though)
I could eat this sandwich everyday (budget or no budget)!
this is my ALLTIME favorite sandwich, but i've never had it with pineapple, love it!
One of the best sandwiches ever! You really can't beat tomato & avocado...
I completely agree with everything you have printed here.
