Creamy Chicken Avocado Sandwich
This fresh and creamy sandwich is the perfect choice for a quick and satisfying lunch.
dailyrecipesbook.comThere is something special about the combination of juicy chicken and smooth avocado. It feels fancy enough for a nice weekend lunch but is simple enough to put together on a busy Tuesday.
My favorite trick for this recipe is to mash the avocado slightly with a fork before adding it to the bread. This keeps it from sliding out while you take your first bite.

๐ก Tips
If you are packing this for work, add a little extra lime juice to the avocado to keep it from browning. You can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for one day, but it really is best eaten fresh.
