Fully Loaded Chicken Salad Sandwich

Easy Weeknight Meals, Must Make

I’m not the biggest fan of store bought chicken salad but, homemade chicken salad? On a buttery, lightly toasted croissant? Fully loaded with avocado, lettuce, bacon and mayo? I could eat this sandwich all summer long!

Instructions

Instructions:

  1. Add all the ingredients to a bowl and mix to combine! You can make this a day ahead. Will last in the refrigerator for up to one week.

To assemble:

  1. Lightly toast croissant (I like to cut the croissant in half and toast it in my toaster oven at 375 degrees for about 3 minutes).
  2. Add 2-3 scoops of chicken salad to one side of the croissant.
  3. Add lettuce, a slice of sharp cheddar cheese, bacon (I cook my bacon in the oven at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes), and smashed avocado. Enjoy!
