Aside from the Shrimp and Pesto Panzanella Salad, this was our favorite dish from the sister weekend. Since I have the chance now, I like to introduce my sister to as many different dishes as I can. She used to be as picky and my little man when it came to new foods, but thankfully, she has grown out of that phase.
She and I love avocados and she actually likes some seafood too, so I get to make avocado and seafood dishes while she spends time at my house. My husband hates seafood, won’t even touch it, and is not a fan of avocados either. Any chance I get to make dishes with these ingredients for someone other than myself, I jump on. It really is much more fun to cook for others than yourself. I’m a praise junkie, I love to hear how much people enjoy what I create. If I was a puppy, I’d wag my tail every time!
I’d definitely wag my tail at this shrimp and avocado loaded flatbread. Okay, I may have wagged a little, but what’s not to love here?! It’s super simple to make and can be done in 15-20 minutes. Getting a tasty, fresh sandwich in just a few minutes, without leaving your house, is just the kind of recipe most people look for.
I love this flatbread sandwich for several reasons. For one, I love using avocados in sandwiches because with it’s creaminess, you never need to add mayo or other sauces. Two, you get a much-desired crunch in the sandwich with an addition of fresh cucumber. So satisfying! Feta cheese is the perfect addition to the cucumber and avocado mixture and a nice compliment to the shrimp. All the flavors are brought together by a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

I am actually kinda glad that my fiance is moving away for a year, because he hates shrimp. Next year will be my year of making a LOT of shrimp recipes. Maybe this will make an appearance 😉
