My mom used to make these fantastic sandwiches when I was a kid and I've always loved them. I've made a few alterations to her basic recipe, and it's so good. This sandwich can be altered in many ways, including the additon of some salsa to spice it up. Please share your thoughts if you prepare this sandwich, I'd love to hear your thoughts and I'd like to hear about any variations you might make.

this was an awesome sandwich although i did change it a bit i took some good french bread and hollowed it out layered the avocodo, i did not mash it like you would do for guacamole, then some spices salt pepper, garlic onion, pepperjack cheese, and a bit of salsa, then i put the top on and wrapped in tinfoil and baked for about 10 min til nice and warm, great, also a great addition was alfalfa sprouts!! thank you for the great idea!
