Check this bad boy out:
Talk about a healthy sandwich! After eating this you just feel so good. And don't you go sticking your nose up at the fact that it has tofu and alfalfa sprouts in it...trust me it tastes really good and is super filling. After one bite Jeff was hooked on it and he hates almost all the ingredients. The secret is the flavor combination and how you stack it. So give it a shot, you will surprise yourself ... if not then I will make sure to make this the next time you are over at my house to convince you. :)
Jeff even has his own name for it, "Captain Tofu"!
Super Green Sandwich
Ingredients:
- A nice soft, nutty Whole wheat bread (we love to use Arnold's Oatnut - very tasty)
- Avocado
- Juice from 1/2 lime
- Alfalfa sprouts
- Cucumber, thinly sliced
- Provolone Cheese
- Tofu (extra firm - I like to mix it up and use different seasoned tofu)
- Fresh Spinach
1. Slice the avocado and place it on one or both sides of the bread. (If you are new to slicing avocado just cut in half, remove the pit, and using a small knife slice into slivers while it is still in the skin - making sure you don't cut thru the skin. Push it out and voila!). Add a little crushed ground pepper to jazz it up if you want.
2. Place a layer of alfalfa sprouts on top of avocado on one slice of the bread.
3. Squeeze lime juice all over sprouts.
4. Place a layer cucumber on top of the sprouts.
5. Place cheese on top of cucumber.
6. Drain liquid and cut tofu* into thin slices and lay on top of cheese.
7. Finish with fresh spinach on top of tofu.
* store leftover tofu in an airtight container with a little water. Change out water daily.
Looks great! I will for sure try to make it.
ReplyDeleteI tried it, and I loved it. Also the chickpea pasta and the chicken in herb sauce. Soon to try the whole wheat pizza and the Mexican casserole. Keep those scrumptious recipes coming.
