Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced

1 ripe avocado, mashed

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise for a richer flavor)

1 tablespoon lime juice

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 slices of whole-grain or sourdough bread

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or your favorite melty cheese)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)

1/2 medium tomato, sliced

Butter for toasting

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken, mashed avocado, Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until creamy and all ingredients are well incorporated. Stir in chopped cilantro if desired.

    Assemble the Sandwiches: Take two slices of bread and spread a generous amount of the chicken and avocado mixture on each. Add a layer of sliced tomatoes on top, and then sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.

      Top it Off: Place the remaining two slices of bread on top to create sandwiches.

        Toast the Sandwiches: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little butter. Once melted, carefully place the sandwiches in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

          Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice them in half, and serve warm with potato chips or a fresh side salad.
