Ingredients
  

2 slices of whole-grain bread

1 ripe avocado

1 cup cooked chicken, shredded or diced

½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

¼ cup plain Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon olive oil

Optional toppings: sliced tomatoes, fresh spinach, or sprouts

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocado Mixture: In a bowl, mash the avocado with lemon juice, Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper until smooth. This will be the spread for your sandwich.

    Combine Chicken and Cheese: In another bowl, mix the shredded chicken with mozzarella cheese. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.

      Assemble the Sandwich: Spread the avocado mixture evenly on one side of each slice of bread. On one slice, layer the chicken and cheese mixture. If desired, add optional toppings like sliced tomatoes or spinach.

        Top and Cook: Place the other slice of bread on top, avocado side down. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Carefully place the sandwich in the skillet.

          Grill the Sandwich: Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. You can use a spatula to press down slightly on the sandwich for an even cook.

            Serve: Remove from heat, slice the sandwich in half, and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious Chicken Avocado Melt Sandwich!
