We currently have an abundance of Avocados here in Durban, and a friend generously gave us a huge mountain of Avos, which we've been having for breakfast, lunch & dinner, plus shared some with friends.

Delicious and more than ample for a light lunch.

Could not resist sharing this 'sandwich' with you - a tongue in cheek piece in response to our Presidential Budget Speech.

You know what that is not just a sandwich that is art in the form of a sandwich I am now officially starving, I would imagine this would work good with bacon too.
BTW what sort of climate does avocado grow in??

Thanks for the compliment @crazybgadventure, bacon would definitely work! We live in a sub-tropical region (Durban, South Africa)

Avocados yum! they look huge! here in peru some can be the size of your head.
Pity to see the state affairs in Pretoria yesterday in regards to land rights.

Wow that is huge! Yep, we really hope things improve with our new state president, but it's not going to be easy.

Great sandwich. Nice decoration. 😊
You are part of my post "Food By Red Fish". Check it out.

Thank you so very much @jamjamfood, really appreciate this:)

ohh que ricura! delicioso ese plato. me gustaría prepararlo. : )

Gracias @karlin, ¡espero que te sientas mucho mejor!

Delicious @lizelle. I have 2 avo trees in my garden. Not ready yet though , almost. Will try your recipe , looks scrumptious.

Thanks @artywink, don't forget us when your avos are ready! I just love those new bread squares, they taste like 'roosterkoek' :)

Looks inviting... Creative presentation...

Thanks @ttenaj2018 :)

Wow this is pretty fantastic Lizelle!

I thought it was some kind of dessert sandwich at first (looking like a waffle and all), however, upon closer inspection it's even better than that.

That thin beef mmm, and the avocado of course is a personal fav of mine lol.

Diggin' the cream cheese additive, I'd usually not tend to mix cream cheese/smoked salmon and meet, however I can see it working in this scenario with a nice cold cut.

Thanks @jaybird, that's SSC's 30th birthday cake :):)
Yep me and that cream cheese just can't be parted! Wish I could give you some avos, they're so rich and creamy, absolutely delicious. We make the most if avo season, the shop bought ones are always full of bruises and just don't taste the same (no refrigeration I suppose)

My friend how are you, this looks yumi yumi, and congratulations, very nice photos, colors of the very eye-catching ingredients, give greetings to the grandmother!

Hi @jennimorrillo, thanks a lot, you take care as well!

Looks great, I love avos but here in Gauteng they currently price higher than diamonds!!

Thanks for stopping by @marcel1965, and one often can't eat half of the shop bought avos, so often bruised! You need to visit Durban this time of the year, but will have to put up with extreme heat and humidity ;)

This is a real cake sandwich)) I like the ingredients, especially avocado)

Thanks @naditinkoff, the avos were the best!

This looks delicious @lizelle. Oh, and please send some avos our way, we only get them here by us in winter. Plus they are hardly ever the nice creamy ones.

Ahhh Jusi, wish I could post some your way, the shop bought ones are so often full of bruise marks!

Awww man, how I mis those big, creamy Durban avo's right now! Yum, that sandwich looks delish :)

Thanks Therneau, these ones are like butter avos, so sorry you're not here to share it with ;)

That looks delicious- though if I were in your shoes, I definitely wouldn't have shared it! :)

Haha @mountainwashere, it was a huge sandwich, had it for lunch with a salad :)
Thanks for stopping by, appreciated!

I look very cool it looks like a cake, I like it by the way congratulations for the contest of the week 29

Thanks @andrina, you could call it SSC's 30th birthday cake;)

WOW! WOW! WOW!

Thank you @andreipopa:)

look delicious, thanks for sharing this recipe, a good alternative for a healthy breakfast ;)

Thanks @wondercircle, appreciate your comments:)

I appreciate your recipe :)

Wow ...what an amazing triple decker sandwich! Always love avo in any sandwich too! @lizelle

Thanks @dianadee!

So good...
I came here because it reminded me of my homeland's "Smörgåstårta" - literally "sandwich cake", but that's a misnomer as it's not sweet but savory, like yours.

Gosh that's fascinating @stahlberg, did not even know a Smorgas tart existed, thanks a stack for the link! Will send a pic of it to my Swedish guests (we still keep in contact) will give them a good chuckle that this South African woman made it without even knowing what she was making :):)

wow, amazing food photography. I am a vegetarian but the sandwich am sure is very yummy

Thanks @sayee, one could omit the beef and perhaps add aubergine or mushrooms, would also be nice I think?

yes, of course, thanks for the reply

oh my goodness, that looks too beautiful to eat!! If it wasn't full of everything that I love (omg avacados) then I don't know if I'd want to destroy it, lol!

Beautiful work!!

Thanks @derosnec, those avocados are so creamy and delicious! I felt quite sad cutting it in half but it was lunchtime and hubby who's a diabetic had to eat so the sandwich was destroyed in one lunch sitting, was delicious ;) Appreciate your comments!

That's one lucky hubby! :D

Hehehe :):)

That is the King and Queen of sandwiches. Beautiful presentation...like a piece of art. You are fortunate to have an abundance of avocados! You really have some great flavor combos and textures. Great flavor with the smoked beef. Lots of creaminess with the avocado, mayo and cream cheese. The veggies add additional flavor and crunch and help cleanse the palate. Good luck!

Thank you so very much @tesscooks4u, it's praise indeed coming from you, much appreciated! I think of it as @jaybird's SSC 30th birthday cake :):)

Wow! This looks appetizing! I have to get this bookmark so when we grow our avocado we can do this in our sandwhich. :) ♥ Yum!

Thanks for stopping by @dawnsheree, I just love those avos!

Indeed they look pretty appetizing. ^^

This is unbelievable!
Piece of art!

Thanks @sweetsandbeyond, congratulations on your win for week#29 :)
