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!!! 

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.
