Have Left Over Rotisserie Chicken?

Jayne

I’m so excited because I found a new recipe that has avocado in it and I love avocado!!!

Besides being a healthy item, this recipe can be served as a great appetizer, a light easy dinner or a great healthy snack for the kids. This is so quick to make and I served it for an appetizer at a party I was invited to and it was the hit of the party.

I purchase rotisserie chicken on a regular basis and never know what to do with leftover chicken and now this is the perfect recipe to use up your leftovers.
