We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Warm tortillas, then make a slice in each one from the center to the edge.

  • Step 2: Imagine there are 4 quadrants.

  • Step 3: Smash half of the avocado on one quadrant of each tortilla.

  • Step 4: Sprinkle with seasoned salt and/or hot sauce, if desired.

  • Step 5: Fold one or two slices of ham and place them in the next quadrant.

  • Step 6: Arrange half of the cheese onto the 3rd quadrant of each tortilla.

  • Step 7: Fold up the tortilla starting with the empty quadrant gets folded over the cheese, then that gets folded over the ham and finally fold over the avocado.

  • Step 8: Place in panini maker, cheese side down until the cheese has melted or until your panini maker signals it's done.

  • Step 9: If you don't have a panini maker, you can place on a cast iron pan and use a spatula to push each one down as they cook.
