Avocado and fresh cheese sandwich

Who this recipe is for

It takes two minutes to assemble and needs no cooking: it fits into the weekly menu for people with cancer on a day when cooking feels like too much.

Ingredients

Quantities for 1 serving. Tick off what you already have.

Step by step

  1. Mash the avocado with a fork, along with a pinch of salt and the olive oil.
  2. Spread it over one slice of bread.
  3. Top with slices of fresh cheese and thinly sliced tomato, if it agrees with you.
  4. Cover with the other slice and cut into four small triangles.

Adaptations

How to change it depending on the day. Each change keeps the dish, it does not replace it.

  • Nausea or sensitivity to smells

    This recipe has virtually no smell: it is assembled cold, and you do not even need to turn on the microwave.

  • Mouth sores or dry mouth

    Leave out the tomato, use crustless sliced bread and cut the sandwich into very small pieces.

  • Poor appetite

    Have one small triangle every few hours instead of eating the whole sandwich at once.

What it provides

Healthy fats from the avocado and oil, protein and calcium from the fresh cheese, and carbohydrates from the bread. Plenty of energy in a small volume, with no cooking required.

The dietitian's tip

Keep sliced bread in the freezer and buy avocados a few days apart so they ripen at different times. If there are days when you cannot manage even this, talk to your doctor: there are oral nutritional supplements that can replace a meal, and they need to be recommended by your oncologist or dietitian-nutritionist.

This is part of the weekly menu for people with cancer. Also from the same menu: pasta salad with egg and tuna and melon and almond gazpacho.

What a recipe is not

This recipe fits into a plan; it does not replace one. It cures nothing and it is not calculated for one particular person: the quantities are indicative and will need adjusting to your case.

If you have a medical condition, take medication or follow a prescribed diet, check with your doctor or your dietitian before changing anything.
