Do you sometimes stare into your fridge when hungry, look at all the food inside whilst dreaming up all the great meals possible. Then the grim prospect of spending a long time prepping the food, stops you right there. You might then activate plan b, which is foraging around for quick junk loaded with sugar, salt & fat or look up the number for your local junk delivery place…… This happens to me way more than I would like it to.

So when lunchtime laziness struck me recently, the focaccia I made recently saved the day. The sandwich above took less than 5 minutes to prep.

• Started by slicing the focaccia into two sandwich halves, toasted the focaccia in a hot grill.
• While the focaccia was toasting, I mashed half an avocado with a fork in a bowl, seasoned the avocado with salt & cayenne pepper.
• After the avocado was done, sliced a tomato, set the tomato slices into a bowl, in the bowl was some balsamic vinegar, salt & black pepper
• The assembly started by spreading the mashed avocado on the toasted focaccia, added the tomato slices, then drizzled some extra virgin olive oil.

Done! Tasty lunch in 5 minutes……
