I’m not a fan of sandwiches but I do like what I’ve thrown together here.
INGREDIENTS: 2 slices of wheat-free or gluten-free bread, two slices from a block of tofu, ¼ sliced courgette, ½ mashed avocado, 2 grilled peppers or jarred peppers, lambs lettuce, Himalayan salt, about 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
TO MAKE:
Toast the bread lightly.
Pre-heat griddle pan at a high temperature.
Pre-heat a separate frying pan until hot and add sliced tofu. Cook until tofu is hot all the way through.
Coat courgettes with oil and place on hot griddle for about a minute or until the courgettes are browned with griddle marks.
Mash the avocado lightly with a fork so it is spreadable.
Spread on a slice of toast.
Add courgette slices followed by tofu slices. Add pepper slices and lambs lettuce. Close your sandwich with second piece of toast.
Enjoy!
To add flavour to the avocado spread add fresh herbs such as coriander, basil and a squeeze of lemon juice.
A healthy sandwich lunch – tofu provides a good source of protein as does the avocado. Avocado is rich in monounsaturated fats, which lower harmful LDL cholesterol, raise heart-protective HDL cholesterol and prevent heart disease and stroke. An avocado contains vitamin E, vitamin C calcium. The calcium in avocados help women maintain strong bones. Avocado also contains vitamin B6 – a lack of this vitamin often leads to developing anemia. Tofu is a highly nutritious, protein-rich, delicious food that is made from the curds of soybean milk. Off-white in color, it is usually sold in rectangular blocks. Tofu is really versatile and can suit a number of different recipes and as a substitute for meat. You can also buy tofu infused with herbs and spices which makes it really yummy – just be sure that you are making healthy choices – I avoid those with added sugar.
