Plant Sandwiches #1

This episode of the Rich Roll podcast got me inspired to revamp my plant food intake again.

I am doing some experiments with simple but delicious sandwiches. I think the elements of a sandwich are:

  1. The main “character”: avocado, garbanzo, seitan, etc.
  2. a good spread, like a mayo, hummus, or pesto. Flavored better.
  3. a leafy plant, like microgreens, sprouts, or spinach.
  4. a kick of acid! some sort of pickle, like pickled red onions.

Here’s an avocado sandwich I tried today.

  • Harissa hummus.
  • Tomato and avocado slices, salted.
  • Pickled red onions.
  • Microgreens.
  • Sprouted flax bread.

The pickled onion recipe I tried today wasn’t that great I’ll be experimenting with others. I am also going to be trying some ways to flavor mashed garbanzo beans, with za’atar, maybe mix in some flax oil, paprika.
