sunny side sandwich

May 18th, 2008 · 5 Comments

Ever since Ro and I were in middle school, we would come home everyday from school and make ourselves a nice big sandwich.  Honey wheat bread, mayo, mustard, cheese, tomato, turkey, corn, the works.  I made the same sandwich all the way through high school, and it was absolutely one of my favorite things to eat.  It was also one of the meals that I missed the most when I became a raw foodist. Earlier this year, I was making a sandwich for a friend of mine who came to visit me at college, when I was hit by a burst of inspiration.  I got out all the freshest vegetables I had, and so the sunny side sandwich was born.  Its one of my favorite meals and its as simple to make as a salad.  You’re just gonna love it.

Ingredients:

* Mustardaise (click for recipe)
* 1/2 of one onion
* 1 tomato
* 1 avocado
* 5 button mushrooms
* 1 leaf lettuce (whatever kind your favorite is)
* salt
* pepper
* 1 slice of raw cheese (non-vegans only)
* 2 pieces of your favorite raw crust

Directions:

The directions for this one are extraordinarily simple.  Mash up the avocados with a bit of salt and pepper.  Slice everything else up like you would for a sandwich.  Put a nice thick layer of my Mustardaise on both of the crusts, and sprinkle some salt and pepper on one side.  For a little extra kick, sprinkle on some red chili pepper too.  Finally, layer everything else on and you are done!  Enjoy it!

    I love this one. I did it with jalapeno peppers and shredded carrots too. It turned out great

    I am wondering if you have a recipe for the raw crust in the photo? It looks amazing!

    The crusts I used for this recipe are from Mauk Family Farms. They are available at many health food stores. I know Whole Foods has them for sure, but as always, they are over priced there.
