Ingredients
Avocado Spread-
1 small avocado
1 tablespoon mayo
Honey Mustard Spread-
2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard (or normal yellow mustard)
1 tablespoon mayo
1 tablespoon honey
Sandwich-
2 Slices of good bread per sandwich (My favorite is sourdough)
Butter, for spreading on one side of bread
Thinly sliced cooked chicken breasts or meat from a rotisserie chicken (I can typically make about 3 sandwiches per chicken breast)
Bacon slices, cooked to desired level of crispiness
Spinach
Sliced Cheese (My favorite is Swiss on this, my husband’s favorite is gouda. Cheddar is also a winner)
Instructions
Avocado Spread-
In a small bowl, with a fork, squish the avocado till smooth. Add mayo and stir to combine.
Honey Mustard Spread-
In a small bowl combine the mustards, mayo, and honey till smooth.
Sandwich-
Butter one side of each piece of bread. On the opposite side of 1 piece of the bread, spread the avocado spread and layer cheese on top. On the opposite side of the other piece of bread spread the honey mustard and put some spinach on top. Place the chicken and bacon on top and place the other piece of bread on top, butter side up. Place on a hot panini press or in a pan and cook till bread is golden brown and cheese is melted. Cut sandwich in half and serve.
