Provence Veggie Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to broil.
• Place each muffin open-faced on a cookie sheet. Spread each half with mashed avocado; place halves close together. Distributing ingredients evenly, cover each half with sprouts, tomatoes, onion, dressing, sesame seeds and cheese.
• Place under broiler for about 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Steps:

• Using a pastry brush, brush olive oil on the vegetable slices and the portobello mushrooms. Season them with salt and pepper. Place vegetables on a hot grill and cook until they are tender. Once vegetables are done brush sliced bread with olive oil and grill on both sides. To assemble, slice portobellos into 1/4-inch slices, spread both sides of the grilled bread with Herbed Mayonnaise and then top with 1 slice each of grilled vegetables and a quarter of the mushrooms, and finish off with lettuce and top with remaining piece of bread.
• Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse.

Steps:

• Heat a stove top grill or heavy skillet over high heat. Lightly brush eggplant and zucchini with oil and grill 3 to 4 minutes, turning once, until vegetables are blackened a bit around edges. Spread rolls with pesto and layer on grilled vegetables, tomatoes and avocado. Top with sprouts and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Make the pickled vegetables:
• Bring vinegar, brown sugar, salt, and 2 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan. Meanwhile, pack vegetables into jars. Pour brine over vegetables. Cover and chill until cool.
• Make the dressing and assemble:
• Whisk buttermilk, yogurt, lemon juice, and 3 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl until smooth; season dressing with salt and pepper.
• Scoop avocados into a small bowl; add 1 Tbsp. oil and lightly mash. Season with salt and pepper. Mash goat cheese with remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in another small bowl until softened and spreadable; season with salt and pepper.
• Add lettuce to dressing and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Spread avocado mixture over 4 slices of bread. Arrange lettuce over and top with cucumber, sprouts, and some drained pickles. Spread remaining 4 slices of bread with goat cheese and close sandwiches.
