Very nice sandwich. I made the filling a day in advance (not by choice, lol) and it was still great the next day. The avocado did not discolor as I was afraid it might. I think a couple of slices of bacon would not be amiss.

I made up the full mix and divided it between 2 lebanese bread rolls and it fed the 3 of us, I put the egg mix down and then put the sliced avocado on top and then the sliced cheese (a cheddar) and we all thoroughly enjoyed, thank youWiGal, made for I Recommend Tag and recommended by Chef Jean.

YUM! I used pepper jack cheese as well because my husband loves it. Also, I used diced green onions in place of the white and I added some nice fresh alfalfa sprouts! This is a wonderful treat and we thank you for posting it.

This is the best kind of sandwich mess and very tasty. Stopped at the bakery a bought a loaf of whole great French bread which add such a wonderful texture and back ground flavor to the yummy avocado and egg filling. Made as written using the dill option. Thanks for the post

I never would have thought of combining chopped egg and avocado but this was very yummy! I used a sprouted grain bread and asiago cheese because they were handing out samples at the grocery. Thanks for sharing the recipe. It's a keeper.
