I love, love these delicious triples (triple-layered mini-sandwiches). They are perfect for parties and get-togethers.

I'm sure I'm not alone when I say that entertaining can sometimes be a stressful proposition: picking the right dishes, food preparation, hiring a brass band... OK, forget about that last one.

About this recipe

This is one of my to-go dishes that are perfect for entertaining: They look refined but with a minimum of effort. Look at those cute mini-sandwiches. These, inspired by a Peruvian dish, and with ingredients, any Dominican would love, couldn't be any easier to make.

Buen provecho!

  Cover top slice slice with 4 tablespoons of the avocado mixture, and top with a third slice of bread.
