The name of this recipe does it no justice. It’s packed with flavour, texture, fiber, and protein.
Makes 4 servings
Mash Ingredients:
- 540 ml canned lentils or beans, drained, rinsed, & mashed
- 1/4 cup garlic hummus
- Spicy paprika and dry ground roasted garlic to taste
- Drizzle of lemon juice or vinegar of your choice
Combine ingredients and set aside.
Sandwich Ingredients (1 serving):
- 2 slices toasted buttered bread or bun.
- 8 whole fresh basil leaves
- 1 fresh sliced vine tomato
- Pickled red onion, to taste
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- 2 slices Monterey jack jalapeño cheese (skip or substitute your preferred cheese)
- 1/4 portion of the bean mash
Instructions:
- Toast and butter 2 slices of bread or both sides of a bun. I prefer Canadian Rye toast, but you do you. A wholegrain kaiser is tasty too.
- To make one open faced sandwich spread the mash on both sides of buttered toast, layer the fresh basil, cheese slices, tomato slices, and pickled red onion, then add salt & pepper to taste.
- Refrigerate leftovers for a few more days of quick lunches.
