Chipotle Chicken Melt

Panera Bread inspired Chipotle Chicken Avocado Melt was craving this sandwich so much but wasn’t craving the $25 I inevitably spend at Panera.

As a kid, it was a TREAT when my mom would take us to Panera. Now that I buy my own food, I know why! Anyway, I still think about that one chipotle chicken melt they had, it was my go-to. So I decided to recreate it myself!

It’s such a simple recipe, which is great for a quick and easy work from home lunch! It definitely satisfies all my Panera cravings.

Here are the Ingredients for this Chipotle Chicken Melt:

• Produce - Eggplant, Carrots, Zucchini, Red Onions Garlic, Basil

• Seasonings - Salt, Black Pepper, Red Pepper Flakes

• Pantry - Rigatoni, Olive Oil

• Dairy - Parmesan
