OMG!!!!!! This was so good I'm dreaming about the next time I'm going to have it. My husband said this sandwich is a must when we have company for lunch and it's so easy. Nothing needs to be changed with this one. My only advice is it goes great with hint of lime chips and a beer.

What an awesome sandwich. I took the advice of Sharlene and got rid of some of the fat, but other than that made as directed. I used Kitz homemade French Bread that I had frozen. As with any sandwich that I make with sliced avocado, it keep trying to escape, but it really added a great freshness to this. Thanks for sharing Engrossed.

I too followed Sharon's suggestions for lowering the fat. This was GOOD!!!

I love sandwiches like this the egg coating gives it so much more flavor, I omittted the avacado as I made this for my DS and he is not fond of it, used cayenne pepper in place of the red pepper flakes, this was thoroughly enjoyed, thanks Engrossed!...Kitten:) -
