PESTO CHICKEN AND PROVOLONE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Set out a baking sheet - you can line with parchment if you'd like. Lay the bread slices across the baking sheet.
• In a large bowl stir together the chicken, pesto, Greek yogurt, and cashews until well combined.
• Heat the olive oil over medium high heat in a small skillet. Add the mushrooms, sprinkle with the salt, and cook, stirring occasionally until they are golden, about 4 minutes.
• While the mushrooms cook, lay a slice of provolone on both halves of each sandwich. Spoon a heap of the pesto chicken on top of the cheese on the bottom half of each sandwich. When the mushrooms are done, spoon a few onto the top half of each sandwich.
• Place the baking sheet in the oven, leaving the sandwiches open-faced to melt the cheese and toast the bread on both sides. Bake for 4-5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the exposed edges of the bread are golden.
• Put the sandwich halves together and serve.
