Carrot Sandwich With Avocado Recipes

Steps:

• Using a vegetable peeler or mandoline, shave carrot into ribbons. Toss carrot and cabbage with lemon juice and oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread 4 slices of toast with Boursin and shingle with cucumber rounds. Season lightly with salt. Lay slices of avocado on remaining 4 slices of toast; mash lightly with a fork. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with oil. Layer pea shoots, cabbage, and carrots over avocado. Close sandwiches, slice, and serve.

Steps:

• Toss 1 1/2 pounds baby carrots, 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon crushed coriander seeds on a baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Roast at 400 degrees F, turning once, 25 to 30 minutes. Top with 1 segmented orange (plus any juices) and 1/2 diced avocado. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Cover 1 bread slice with 1 tablespoon spread. Top with half of carrot, sprouts, avocado, and radish. Season with salt and pepper. Top with another bread slice; repeat layers. Top with remaining bread.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat. Toast cumin seeds in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing often, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool.
• Coarsely crush cumin seeds with a mortar and pestle (or on a cutting board with the flat side of a chef's knife). Transfer to a large bowl. Add lemon juice and honey. Whisk in ¼ cup oil, then add chile and ginger. Season dressing with salt. Let sit while you grill carrots (this will give the chile and ginger time to infuse into dressing).
• Toss carrots and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil on a rimmed baking sheet to coat; season with salt. Grill carrots, turning occasionally, until lightly charred in spots and tender, 14-18 minutes. Immediately transfer carrots to bowl with dressing and toss to coat. Taste and season with more salt if needed.
• Arrange carrots and avocados on a platter and spoon any dressing left in bowl over. Top with mint.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a small food processor or a mortar, pulse or pound the garlic with the cumin, thyme, chile flakes, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper to make a paste. Add vinegar and 2 tablespoons of the oil, and mix well.
• Arrange carrots in a roasting pan and spread spice paste on top. Place orange and lemon halves, cut side down, on carrots. Roast until carrots are tender and starting to brown, about 45 minutes.
• Using tongs, arrange carrots on a serving platter. With a dishtowel to protect your hands, squeeze juice from the roasted orange and lemon halves into a measuring cup. You should have about 1/2 cup juice. Beat in remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle some of this sauce over the carrots.
• Arrange avocado over carrots, then scatter sprouts on top. Drizzle with reserved sauce, top with dollops of sour cream and a sprinkling of the seeds. Serve.

Steps:

• Make the Creamy Carrot-Radish Slaw:
• Whisk mayonnaise, oil, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a medium bowl until smooth. Add carrots, radishes, cilantro, parsley, almonds, salt, and pepper and stir to combine.
• Make the Chickpea Salad:
• Whisk mayonnaise, oil, salsa verde, lemon zest, and lemon juice in another medium bowl until smooth. Pulse shallot and garlic in a food processor until very finely chopped. Add chickpeas and pulse just until coarsely chopped, about 20 seconds. Transfer to bowl with salsa verde mixture. Fold in cucumber, feta, cilantro, and parsley; season with salt and pepper.
• Assemble the sandwiches:
• Layer 4 slices of avocado on each bottom bun. Top with a heaping 3/4 cup chickpea mixture and 2 Tbsp. spinach. Top with top bun and serve with carrot-radish slaw alongside.
• Do Ahead
• Chickpea salad can be made 2 days ahead. Chill in a resealable container.
