Zucchini Torta | Feed Your SkullMeet your next sandwich.

Seriously.

This took less than 20 minutes to make so it’s fresh cooked and oh so tasty.

It’s a zucchini torta.

Did I mention it also has avocado? It does.

A torta is a kind of Mexican sandwich served on a bolillo roll and like all sandwiches it can be eaten hot, cold, grilled, and toasted.

Water sautéing is an excellent way to cut down on oil dependence in cooking. Instead enjoy a whole food source of healthy fat from the avocado.
