Ingredients

This recipe uses simple ingredients you can find in any grocery store! Here's what you'll need:

• Tomato - Choose the freshest tomatoes you can find for this recipe.
• Avocado - Since store-bought avocados are usually pretty hard, plan to buy them a few days in advance (and let them ripen on your counter). And I always recommend purchasing an extra avocado or two, because you never know what you'll get once they're cut open!
• Bread - I used whole wheat bread here, but almost anything works! This sandwich would be delicious on sourdough or another artisan-style bread, if you have it.
• Sauce - The simple, but super delicious sauce is made with a combination of Greek yogurt, fresh basic, garlic, and sriracha sauce.

You'll Also Need:

To make the sandwich, you need to small bowl to prep the sauce, as well as a sharp knife to cut the tomatoes and avocados.
