    1. It is a kitchen gadget that seals the bread together to form a pocket sandwich (like uncrustables). You could just make these into a traditional sandwich if you don’t have the sandwich press to make the pockets.

    1. The avocado should stay green because of the lemon juice and because it is inside the sandwich and not directly exposed to air. Your avocados should be soft, but not over-ripe on freezing day.
