Spring is here and [Shake Shack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-pickle-bacon-burger) is introducing two fresh new avocado-centric dishes: the Avocado [Bacon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supersonic-double-cheeseburger) Burger and new Avocado Bacon Chicken Sandwich.

Shake Shack's new Avocado Bacon Burger is a delicious twist on its classic burger. The new dish consists of a burger patty topped with cheese, sliced avocado, [Niman Ranch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/niman-ranch-beef-bacon) applewood-smoked bacon, and ShackSauce, all served on a lightly toasted bun. If beef is not your thing, the new Avocado Bacon Chicken Sandwich features a crispy chicken breast topped with sliced avocado, Niman Ranch applewood-smoked bacon, lettuce, pickles, and a tangy buttermilk herb mayo on a toasted bun.

Best of all, Shake Shack is allowing customers to add sliced avocado to any burger or sandwich for just $1.25 (while supplies last).
