Avocado and Tomato Sandwich

Ingredients

2 ripe avocados, pitted and peeled

Juice of 1/2 lime

1/4 t salt

6 T light mayonnaise

2 T chopped fresh basil

1/2 t chipotle chili pepper powder

6 ounces sliced sharp cheddar cheese

2 ripe medium tomatoes, cored and thinly sliced

Using a fork, mash the avocados in a bowl. Stir in the lime juice and 1/8 teaspoon of the salt.

Stir together the mayonnaise, basil, and chipotle powder in a cup. Spread the flavored mayo evenly on one side of each slice of toasted bread.
