    Artichoke and Kale Veggie Sandwich recipe by @beardandbonnet on www.thismessisours.com

    Let's talk sandwiches, like epic veggie sandwiches that make you literally drool as you eat them, they leave you stuffed and satisfied. This sandwich is the ultimate- it's a rainbow of color, the perfect mix of texture and the flavor is nothing short of DYNO-MITE!!! 

    Artichoke and Kale Veggie Sandwich recipe by @beardandbonnet on www.thismessisours.com

    Maybe I should tell you how the heck this sandwich came to be. It was sort of a crazy accident that has now turned into a weekly indulgence around here. You see, a few weeks back the fruit bandit turned 5 and we threw an epic, birthday party! The whole theme of the party was green; green decorations, green drink boxes, green reptiles and you guessed it, green food. With an invite list of over 20 kids and parents we knew we were going to need a lot of food. So, I did what I do and I made a TON of food! At the end of the day most of the spread was devoured, but I was left with some stray veggies, and a cup or two of Pinch of Yum's Magic 5 Minute Green Sauce .

    Come dinner time on party night I was exhausted, but ravenously hungry. I surveyed the ingredients I had on hand from the party, scoured the freezer  and found a few of my favorite gluten free sourdough rolls tucked away and grabbed a couple slices of leftover crispy eggplant bacon. Ultimately, I decided that the sandwich route was the only way to go. I am so glad I did! The only downfall really is that now each week I have to make a batch of that green sauce to have on hand when the sandwich mood strikes, it's really not such a bad problem to have.

    No bread, no worries! These ingredients make a killer kale salad, just thin the green sauce with a little extra lime juice or water so that is more of a dressing consistency.

    • Prep Time: 10 mins
    • Total Time: 10 mins

      Your sandwich building skills are on point. Once eggplant is available here, I am totally trying the bacon!
      I forget how much a sandwich is a rockin' meal, more motivation to make some gf sandwich bread, or some of your biscuits. xo!

        Thank you!! I cannot wait for you to try that crispy eggplant bacon - it is seriously SO good. Biscuits would be a great option, however I gotta get you some Bread Srsly to try because you really deserve some gf sourdough 🙂

      I love Sadie's bread! I thought sourdough was definitely off limits when going gf/df until I found her bread. This looks like a sandwich I want to sink my teeth into and love how easy it is to make when dinner for the family feels like a tall order. YUMS.

        Hey there Jessica! I am so glad that you have found Bread Srsly too, it is a total game changer. This is the only sandwich my husband will eagerly accept as a dinner option, ha! It's super hearty and those artichokes take it to the next level.
