Kari’s Veggie Sandwich:
- Thickly sliced whole-wheat sourdough (Adrian Hale’s recipe), but any thick-sliced fresh bread would work!
- Spread hummus on one slice of bread (I love Little Sesame classic) and top with grated carrot and crumbled feta
- Mash avocado and a little kosher salt on the second siide, then top with thinly sliced cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced kohlrabi, and honey-mustard pickles (my family’s local fave Kaylin & Kaylin)
- Shred romaine, baby gem, or iceberg lettuce and carefully top one side, then close the sandwich, and cut in half
- Serve with your favorite chips!
