Veggie Sandwich

I like a really good sandwich from time to time.  This one, was really good.  Oozy egg yolk, flavorful and tangy goat cheese spread, roasted sweet potatoes...  this sandwich packs quite a punch.  It's one I will definitely be eating again soon!



Sun-dried Tomato Goat Cheese Spread
Recipe by Shannon

2oz goat cheese
1oz sundried tomatoes (not in oil*), roughly chopped
1/8t salt
2T parsley
1 garlic clove
~2t extra virgin olive oil
almond milk

Add goat cheese, tomatoes, salt parsley and garlic to the small bowl of a food processor.  Pulse until starting to combine, then add in olive oil.  Run for a little bit longer, then taste and adjust to taste with salt and pepper.  Process again, adding enough almond milk to achieve a spreadable consistency.  Store in the fridge.


For the sandwich...

Hearty bread (I used some Irish Soda Bread similar to this w/o raisins)
Sunny side-up or poached egg
Roasted Sweet Potato Rounds
Arugula
Sliced Red Onion
Sun-dried Tomato Goat Cheese Spread, see above
Avocado Slices (optional)

  1. A really good sandwich is tough to beat... and this one sounds fabulous! So many delicious flavors going on.

    It is so difficult to choose a favorite sandwich - but it MUST start with good bread. I'm partial to Great Harvest bread, but am working up to making my own at home =).

  7. This looks so delicious! As I try to finish a paper at 10pm nothing is sounding better than what you have right here...but generally a delish Tofu Banh Mi is right up my alley.

  10. I've been loving the Sandwich King on Food Network - I've made about half of his recipes and they are all stunning, but this one was really good - meatball sandwich with giardiniera - I even made the rolls from scratch - so good!
