This raw vegetable sandwich is not like any other you have tasted. This sandwich is fresh, crunchy, flavorful, and filled with good plant-based protein.
how to make an excellent vegan sandwich with vegetables and hummus?
You can make this sandwich without a recipe; it is a sandwich that you can prepare with whatever vegetables you have at home. This sandwich is straightforward to prepare and takes no time to prepare. Here are the steps on how to make it:
First, make the chipotle hummus. This hummus recipe is a bit thicker than the normal one. The idea behind it is that you don’t want runny hummus; you want it to stay on the bread. You can prepare this recipe with or without Chipotle.
Second. Grate the vegetables. In this case, I used beets and carrots.
Third. Assemble the sandwich. Add mayonnaise to a few slices of bread, then hummus, put some lettuce leaves, vegetables, salt & pepper, and that’s it.
TIPS FOR USING HUMMUS IN SANDWICHES
- Hummus with chipotle is optional but adds a smoky flavor that pairs well with sweet carrots and beets. Perfect for those who like extra flavor.
- It’s best to use thick, cold hummus; if it’s too soft, it can make the bread soggy.
WHICH BREAD IS THE BEST FOR A VEGETABLE SANDWICH?
- The best bread is the one you like the most. I love using sprouted grain and seeded loaves of bread.
- These whole-grain loaves of bread usually have a slightly firmer texture than regular box bread.
- But you can use any loaf bread, baguette, rustic bread, whichever you like the most.
TIPS TO MAKE THE PERFECT SANDWICH
✨A super tip is to put the sandwich filling between lettuce leaves, spinach, or kale; any green will do; the idea is to protect the bread. You add mayonnaise, mustard, or whatever you want to the bread, then the greens, and on top of them, the rest of the filling.
✨Another tip is not to assemble the sandwich until you are going to serve it. You can grate the vegetables and leave them in the fridge. You can make the hummus ahead of time and save it; add the avocado and cut it just before assembling and serving the fresh vegetable sandwich.
