My daughter introduced me to my new favorite sandwich. If you're a vegetable lover like me, you'll probably love it too:
- 2 pieces of toasted honey whole wheat bread (buy or make the real stuff)
- honey mustard dressing
- 1/2 avocado sliced lengthwise
- 4-6 pieces of sliced cucumber
- Lettuce or fresh spinach leaves
- 2 tomato slices
- slice of yellow onion (optional)
- salt to taste
Toast the wheat bread, spread on the honey mustard dressing, then layer on the vegetables and add a dash of salt. It's easier to eat if you cut the sandwich in half. Yum! :) A tip on the avocado - either make a friend a sandwich with the other half or cut the avocado in half with the peel on. Then put some lime juice on the exposed portion of the avocado, wrap securely in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator. Avocados never keep long, but they'll keep a little longer with the peel on and lime juice on the cut side.
I’ve been making humus sandwiches with sprouts, pickles, olives, spinach & roasted peppers this week and it’s such a great warmer weather lunch. Thanks for some new, inspiring ideas!
