This is the very sandwich that made Tom fall in love with Avocado. After he loved I mean LOVED this sandwich he let me put avocado on many more things. Slowly, it became his all time fav! He now asks for avocado to go on almost everything, especially his morning boiled egg sandwiches. Tom says to call this sandwich the veggie-Godwhich…..because it must have come from the veggie Gods hahahah. I loved that idea, and so I put it in brackets ha! This sandwich is jam packed with nutrients and literally is a flavor bomb in your mouth and nutrition to the belly, its so good!
Ingredients
3 Museli Round OR 6 slices of sprouted grain toast
3 tsp Coconut Oil (spread between 3 sandwiches)
3 tbsp Olive Oil Mayo (divided)

Instructions
Two options:
1. If using Museli Rounds put in the toaster and then place the following ingredients on top of each other… start with coconut oil, siracha, mashed avocado, drizzle lemon, shredded carrots, sprouts, thin slice red onion, cucumber, tomato salt and pepper. Eat open faced.
2. If using sprouted bread toast the slices. On one side use coconut oil, and then add avocado and then cucumber on top……on the other side add a little olive oil based mayo, carrots, pickled red onion, tomato. Add salt and pepper over tomatoes. Add arugala. Drizzle hot sauce if using. Put two halves together and cut diagonally.
Saving Money:
Feel free to use whatever brand of bread you have on hand, however, I am a huge advocate of sprouted grain bread or bread that is made with natural ingredients and whole grains. I have linked to our family favorites in the “Instructions” above.
I purchase my sprouted bread (and muesli) from Costco. You basically get a bread, free!
Quick Tips & Tools:
Tools:
knife, toaster or hot pan with oil on stove. Pairing knife, cutting board, medium sized bowl
Tips:
When you cut up these veggies make sure to cut up more than you need so you have extra for snack or lunch tomorrow.
Make your own sprouts (from a health food store) by buying seeds and following instructions on the back. This is what I do.
Buy sprouts from any grocery store. Generally found close to the lettuce, in the fridge section.
I enjoy alfalfa sprouts and pea shoots!
Make Your own Mayo OR use store bought or homemade hummus instead.
Saving Time:
Save time by being present. Being with the act of slicing and dicing and toasting and spreading. Bring love into every moment. Be in the present moment saves time.
