Look at the beautiful colors of the ingredients on this sandwich! |
If that strikes you as an odd combination, you aren't alone. Quite a while ago I found the 'wichcraft cookbook on sale. I wouldn't ordinarily spring for a sandwich cookbook, but I like 'wichcraft (especially their ice cream sandwiches!) and it was a good bargain. I finally got around to using it and it's excellent!
I have a lovely organic green grocer near me so I decided to go for a vegetarian sandwich and I wanted something cold since we were eating it with a bowl of mom's tomato soup.
With all that in mind, I picked this sandwich. It is a remarkably hearty sandwich of sliced avocado, segments of grapefruit, sprouts, and julienned, raw, golden beets tossed in a light vinaigrette on some bread. That's it. The smooth avocado, the crunchy beets, and the juicy grapefruit worked so well together. The flavors all meshed and I was really surprised how nice the raw beets were--I've never eaten uncooked beets before.
The combination was unique and the sandwiches were delicious. I can't wait to try more sandwiches from the cookbook!
