The 'Go-To' Vegan Sandwich

INGREDIENTS

-1 or 2 slices toasted spelt bread (in case you want open-faced to reduce your bread-carb intake)
-Avocado
-Hummus
-Horseradish
-Dijon Mustard
-Sliced tomato
-Romaine Lettuce
-Vegan bacon substitute (I like the 'Morningstar Farms' brand).

DIRECTIONS

Toast 1 or 2 pieces of spelt bread, and toast 2 pieces of vegan bacon substitute until crispy. Then spread a thin layer of dijon mustard and a thin layer of purple or white horseradish on one slice of the bread.

Next, mash half of a ripe avocado with a fork onto the piece of bread. Spread a thin layer of hummus on top of the mashed avocado.

For the final steps, place a couple of quarter-inch-thick lightly sea-salted tomato slices on top of the hummus, break up the toasted vegan bacon into pieces that will fit comfortably within the sandwich borders, and top with a big green piece of romaine lettuce. Garnish with a little sea salt and crushed black pepper. Close with the other slice of toasted spelt bread, or leave it as-is. Now that is one sexy sandwich. Indulge, mes amis.
