Single-Serving Vegan: Avocado-Spinach Panini

Ingredients:
1/2 avocado, diced
anywhere from 1/4 to 1/2 cup spinach
1/2 tomato, sliced
2 slices of ciabatta bread, or a sliced ciabatta roll
1 clove of garlic, minced (optional)
olive oil

Directions:
Spray/brush bread with olive oil; layer avocado, tomato, spinach, and garlic on bread; if desired, spray with olive oil again. Heat olive oil in a skillet on medium heat; put sandwich in, weighing it down by placing another pan on top, either weighted with cans or applying pressure yourself (we used a cast iron skillet; those things are pretty heavy). Cook for 1-2 minutes. Flip; cook for another 1-2 minutes on low to no heat. Serve.

I'll tell you - this is darn good for a vegan sandwich.
