Spread inside of each slice of bread with the spread evenly and generously. Add shredded cheese on one side top with avocado slices, then bacon and top with more shredded cheese and the other half of the bread. Preheat grill pan on medium heat and place sandwich on grill pan. Lower the heat and flip when you see grill marks, once flipped, spread a light coat of mayonnaise with a pastry brush. Flip the sandwich and do the same with the other side. Flip back and forth to melt the cheese.
