Ingredients
  

2 slices of whole grain or sourdough bread

1 cup cooked chicken, shredded or sliced

1 ripe avocado, mashed

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup Greek yogurt or mayonnaise

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh spinach leaves

Olive oil for grilling

Instructions
 

Preparation of Spread: In a medium bowl, combine the mashed avocado, Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.

    Assembling the Sandwich:

      - Start by spreading a generous layer of the avocado mixture on one slice of bread.

        - Layer the shredded or sliced chicken evenly over the avocado spread.

          - Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the chicken.

            - Add a handful of fresh spinach leaves for a crunchy texture.

              - Spread the remaining avocado mixture on the second slice of bread, then place it on top, spread side down.

                Grilling the Sandwich: Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil to coat the pan. Place the assembled sandwich on the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula and grill the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.

                  Serving Your Melt: Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing it in half. Serve warm with your choice of chips or a side salad.
