Spicy Grilled Cheese Avocado Recipe

I found this recipe on Facebook by Just Livin The Green.

1 avocado
1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce 
1 tablespoon lime juice
¼ cup Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper
Slice the avocado in half and remove the stone. Prick all over with a fork, or cut criss-cross patterns with a knife. This allows the sauce to penetrate the flesh.
 
Pour the sauce over each half, then top with lime juice and salt and pepper.
 
In the cavity where the stone has been, put a fourth of the cheese on each avocado half. Place under the broiler for 2 minutes.
 
Top with remaining cheese and broil for another 2 minutes until completely melted and avocado warmed through.
 
(The only thing I would change is they type of cheese. The Parmesan does not melt well enough. I would sub with Cheddar or Mozzarella next time.)
