We really loved the sandwiches and but did not like the raw fennel in the salad. I could probably substitute some celery instead.
I only did the sandwiches, but they were yummy. I used my homemade hummus and added some leftover roast beef. The only think I would do differently is add a little more cheese under the avocado to help it adhere a little better...
These were incredibly simple to make and extremely tasty. We had leftover french bread baguettes and I used that to make the sandwiches. Yummy!
My husband and I LOVED the melts and had it for dinner and lunch the next day. I used a Spicy Avocado hummus that was perfect for the dish. We will definitely be making this again (and again).
