Ingredients

Scale

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 ripe avocado, mashed
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lime juice
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
6 slices whole-grain bread (or your choice)
1 cup mixed greens or spinach
Slices of tomato (optional)

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mashed avocado, Greek yogurt or mayo, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until creamy and well blended.
If using cilantro, fold it into the mixture for added freshness.
Toast your bread slices if desired – it adds great texture.
Spread the chicken avocado mix evenly over three slices of bread.
Add mixed greens and tomato slices, then top with the remaining bread slices to form sandwiches.
For a warm, melty finish, grill the assembled sandwiches in a skillet for a couple of minutes on each side until golden.

Notes

To enhance the texture, consider adding chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans. For a flavor twist, a pinch of cumin or paprika works beautifully. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days – it tastes even better the next day!
