Avocado Cream Cheese Sandwiches.

My daughter in law recently told me that my son used to bring her avocado and cream cheese sandwiches.  I had never heard of such a thing and was instantly intrigued.

Because avocado and cream cheese are both delicious, but rather bland, I decided to use some spices to add some flavor.  I used King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls to make sliders, but any bread would do.

Avocado Cream Cheese Sandwiches

2-4 oz. cream cheese
1 large ripe avocado
1 teaspoon lime juice, to  add flavor and prevent browning
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon curry
1/2 teaspoon cumin
6 King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls, or bread of choice.  Toast if desired.  I desired.


 

Stir the cream cheese until softened and smooth.  Add the avocado and lime juice and mash them together.

 

Add the spices you like.  Don't overwhelm the flavor.  I used cumin and curry.  You could also use the flavored cream cheese in the deli case.  In this case, you shouldn't add any additional spices or flavoring

 

Spread a generous portion on the bread of choice.  Serve with fruit and iced tea for a light summer meal.
