Looking for a refreshing lunch or dinner recipe this summer?
Give this sandwich a try! I have found myself dreading turning on my stove to cook this summer, it is just too hot out! One of my favourite meals to enjoy in this weather is a crisp and refreshing sandwich that requires little prep and no stove. A sandwich is also a great way to ensure you are having a balanced meal - whole grain carbohydrates, lean protein and loaded with veggies for fibre. This sandwich uses leftover rotisserie chicken as the protein source - one of my summertime staples for quick, nutritious and delicious meals. Loaded with your favourite veggies, this sandwich can be customized to your preferences.
Recipe makes x 1 sandwich
Total Time: 10 minutes
Recipe Ingredients
2 slices whole grain bread, toasted to your preference
2-3 oz shredded rotisserie chicken, skin removed
1 slice provolone cheese
¼ avocado, mashed
1 tbsp honey mustard
1 handful baby spinach
Recipe Directions
On one piece of your toasted bread, assemble your sandwich: chicken, provolone, mashed avocado, honey mustard, spinach.
Slice in half and serve with fresh fruit/vegetables, or pairs great with our Better than Canned Tomato Soup.
Tip:
If you’re packing this for lunch, avoid putting your sauces directly onto the bread. This will prevent it from going soggy in your lunch bag!
