Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)

1 ripe avocado, mashed

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (for creaminess)

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

4 slices of whole grain or sourdough bread

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 small tomato, sliced

Handful of fresh spinach or arugula

Olive oil or butter for grilling

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken Mix: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mashed avocado, Greek yogurt, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined and the mixture is creamy.

    Assemble the Sandwich: Lay out two slices of bread. Spread an even layer of the chicken and avocado mixture on each slice. Top with sliced tomatoes, a handful of spinach or arugula, and a generous sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese.

      Complete the Sandwich: Place the remaining two slices of bread on top to form sandwiches.

        Grill the Sandwich: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil or a pat of butter. Carefully place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until the bread is golden brown and crispy.

          Flip and Melt: Carefully flip the sandwiches over, adding a bit more oil or butter if needed. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

            Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half, and serve warm. Enjoy your delightful Chicken Avocado Melt Sandwich!
