Ingredients
  • 1 French Baguette or Batard bread, sliced into half inch slices (I got about 20 slices)
  • 1-2 mashed Avocados
  • 1 Tablespoon Lime Juice
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • Extra virgin olive oil
Pecan Chicken Salad
  • 1 (10 ounce) can Petite Diced Tomatoes (or use fresh)
  • 1 (4 ounce) can green chilies, drained
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon raw honey
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • ½ cup chopped toasted pecans
Instructions
  1. Heat oven to 350.
  2. Place the baguette slices on a large rimmed baking sheet. Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil and sprinkle with a small amount of salt and pepper.
  3. Bake until golden brown, about 15-17 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheets.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare the Pecan Chicken Salad.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine tomatoes, chilies, Greek yogurt and honey.
  6. Stir in cooked chicken, celery, and toasted pecans
  7. In another small bowl, combine mashed avocados, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  8. Top each baguette with the avocado mixture, spreading with a knife, and a heaping spoonful of the chicken salad. Serve immediately or avocado mixture will turn brown. Use any leftover chicken salad to make sandwiches! Enjoy.
