This chorizo avocado grilled cheese is going to rock your socks off.
Chorizo Avocado Grilled Cheese

Now that Easter has passed it’s time to get back to grilled cheese month. I couldn’t leave everyone hanging with just one recipe this month to celebrate. In all reality I wanted to have a whole week dedicated to sandwiches but as you can tell time got away from me. Life happens.

This chorizo avocado grilled cheese is complete comfort food. Get on your stretchy black yoga pants and get ready for the ultimate bite. You might already have the pants on with all the left over Easter candy sitting around your kitchen. OK, I might be speaking just for myself. Thank goodness I’ve got a whole candylicious junkyard cookie recipe just waiting to be made with that candy.

I don’t cook much with chorizo, even with my love for Mexican food. It’s always chicken, beef or shrimp but this sammie just wouldn’t be the same with those meats. Chorizo HAD to be the stand out ingredient with avocado. You are also going to need a thick white bread and of course I prefer good ole’ Texas sliced bread. I mean come on it doesn’t get any better than that. Finish out grilled cheese month strong with this chorizo avocado grilled cheese sandwich.
