Creamy Avocado & Chicken Toasts – Recipe!

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Summertime is all about keeping it cool and what better way to serve a delicious meal than on toasted rustic bread.  Grilled, poached or rotisserie leftover chicken from a previous meal can make a super no-cook meal in minutes.  Since it is summer and all, grilling a few extra breasts on the barbecue is always a great idea because you can transform the leftovers into something even more delicious than the first time around.

Avocados offer a creaminess that is hard to beat and after a slight mash, become mayonnaise-like with a palate pleasing consistency.  Coating each chunk of chicken in the avocado dressing adds natural richness right before it’s piled high on toasted bread.  The combination of the two tastes with their favorable flavors becomes something you definitely want to bite into, especially on good rustic bread.

I like to serve these for lunch, appetizer or a light dinner and they probably would make a pretty decent breakfast too.  You can slice them in half or keep them whole to eat with a knife and fork.
