Grilled Chicken Avocado Club Sub with Spicy Sundried Tomato Mayo

These may be the lazy days of summer but summertime meals can still be just as time constricted as any other time of the year. With a 5:30 baseball game to attend one evening, it left very little time for a family dinner but a little pre-planning saved the day once more. We had grilled chicken breasts the previous evening and purposely grilled extra chicken to make these delicious club sandwiches.

Some homemade Spicy Sun-dried Tomato Mayo made these a little extra special and ripe avocado slices added more flavor and creamy texture in every bite. My daughter declared this the best sandwich she's ever eaten and is already asking when we are having more. With a full roster of baseball games, dance and music camps and other summer activities in the coming weeks, I'd say the opportunity to enjoy them again is probably just around the corner.
