    I made this Avocado Filled with Chicken two weeks ago, but somehow never got around to posting it. This recipe is so simple, yet so delicious.

    If you have your own homemade roasted chicken...perfect. If not, use your favorite store bought chicken instead. It is also great way to use your leftover chicken. These stuffed avocados can be served as an appetizer or as a salad.

    Buen provecho!

      Wow, Erica, that looks amazing and Alexis would go nuts over it. She gets a stuffed avocado dish at our favorite Mexican place that she adores. This is a wonderful use of that "leftover rotisserie or bbq chicken" that we so often have.
