Start by preparing the vegan chicken strips according to the package instructions, typically by either pan-frying for about 5 minutes or until they are heated through and slightly crispy.
While the vegan chicken strips are cooking, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
Add lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to the avocado. Mash together until you achieve a smooth mixture.
Toast the whole grain bread slices until they are golden brown.
Slice the tomato thinly and set aside.
To assemble the sandwich, take two slices of toasted bread. Spread about 1 tablespoon of the avocado mixture on each slice.
Place a large lettuce leaf on top of the avocado spread on each slice of bread.
Divide the cooked vegan chicken strips evenly on top of the lettuce on each sandwich.
Add tomato slices over the chicken strips.
Spread 1 tablespoon of vegan mayonnaise on the remaining two slices of toasted bread and place them on top of the tomato slices, mayonnaise side down.
Press the sandwiches gently and cut each one in half diagonally. Serve immediately and enjoy your Vegan Chicken Avocado Sandwich.
