I certainly don't consider myself a vegetarian ( I love my steak!), however I do try to incorporate a large amount of vegetables into my diet. A way that I love to eat my veggies is on a sandwich! I happened upon the notion of a veggie sandwich on my birthday a few months ago. I was at a pub with my friends and wasn't feeling the best, so I knew I didn't want to participate in the typical greasy pub fare. To my surprise, this pub offered a veggie sandwich. I was skeptical until I took my first bite, MMMM!!! That sandwich was amazing! Since then I have tried many different variations of the veggie sandwich and have found all of them delightful. Below is my favorite sandwich from the always delicious website dancing carrots !

| Via dancing carrots |
Whole wheat bread **I use gluten free bread**
Cucumbers (peeled & sliced)
Tomatoes (sliced)
Green and /or red peppers
Alfalfa Sprouts
Avocado (mashed) **If you don't like avocado or want to try something different, I like to use a good aioli or spread garlic hummus on the bread**
Sliced Monterey Jack Cheese – (or vegan cheese) **I personally think that a quality mozzarella cheese tastes the best**
PREPARE: Scoop out avocado and mash in a bowl till smooth. Season with garlic salt and chopped green onion to taste. Slice remaining veggies and cheese and set aside for the construction of sandwiches.
FINISH: Layer a slice of whole wheat bread with avocado spread… then simply layer remaining veggies & cheese on whatever order captures your imagination. Top with sprouts and last layer of bread and cut diagonally. Pierce with a toothpick and serve!
