FAQs

Q: Can I use canned chicken?
A: Yes. Drain and shred canned chicken, then mix with avocado the same way.

Q: Can I make this vegetarian?
A: Yes. Replace the chicken with cooked beans, tofu, or extra cheese and vegetables.

Q: How do I stop the avocado from browning?
A: Add a little lemon or lime juice to the mashed avocado and keep it in an airtight container.

Q: Can I freeze the sandwich?
A: Freezing is not ideal because avocado changes texture. Freeze the chicken (without avocado) and add fresh avocado later.

Q: Is this sandwich good cold?
A: It is best warm so the cheese melts, but it is okay cold if you prefer.
