Grilled Chicken and Avocado Napoleons

This evening I tried another recipe by Giada. I’ve wanted to put this one together for over a month and just managed to get all my ingredients together.  I  substituted  fresh lettuce greens from our garden  for the spinach, because I forgot to add it to my list this morning.  If spinach makes any [...]
