Avocado/Fried Chicken Burger

First post, first recipe. I am very excited to start this new adventure and share my recipes with you!!!

A little bit about me: I love burgers, I could eat burgers every week…. wait… that’s actually what I do. But lately I got tired of my traditional recipe. So, two weeks ago when I was preparing the menu for the week and looking in my fridge to see what I had left from the week, I had the idea to make a different burger, one that would combine the freshness of the avocado with the crispness of breaded chicken. This burger is all you need: it is healthy thanks to the vegetables but still very tasty thanks to the chicken.

For those of you who are vegetarians, the chicken can be replaced by a portobello mushroom cooked schnitzel style (i.e. with breading). I’ve tried it before and it’s just as good.

This recipe is easy and can be modified to suit your taste. Feel free to change the vegetables.
