Summertime Veggie Sandwich

Submitted by januarybride

"I had a similar sandwich at The Soulard Coffee Garden in St. Louis and it was wonderful. The olive spread and the guacamole work so well together. I have attempted to recreate it here."

 

• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Yields: 2 sandwiches
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 4 slices soft thick cut rye bread (you may sub whole wheat)
• 3 tablespoons light cream cheese
• 3 kalamata olives, chopped small
• 4 tablespoons prepared guacamole
• 2 large lettuce leaves (romaine works nicely)
• 1⁄2 tomatoes, sliced
• 2 thin slices of a large red onions (cut through the middle to get the largest circle possible)

directions

1. Let cream cheese sit out for about 15 minutes, then mix in the olives.
2. Spread 1.5 T of the cheese/olive spread on 1 piece of bread. Top with 1 onion round, 1 piece of lettuce and a couple slices of tomato. Spread 2 T of guacamole on another piece of bread and place it on top of the tomato!
3. Repeat for the second sandwich! Cut them in half and enjoy.

Used more olives and subbed green onion and this made a great lunch.

Great sandwich, even though I ate it in the dead of winter! A nice mixture of flavors. I scaled this down for one sandwich, made up a quick batch of guacamole, and enjoyed this lovely sandwich. Thanks! Made for the Vegetarian forum Adopt a Veggie Tag.
