Our go-to quick and easy avocado sandwich piled high with fresh veggies, sprouts, and creamy mashed avocado. Add baked tofu or tempeh for a protein boost!
I’ve been making this EASY (5-10 minute!) sandwich for years and always thought it was a bit too simple for the site. But hey… simple is what we do, so here goes! I really enjoy the combo of mashed avocado on one half, and mustard (or hummus) on the other. Not only are they both super delicious, but act as a helpful “glue” keeping the veggies in place.
I often add thin slices of savory baked tofu as well which adds awesome flavor and a protein boost. Or you can change it up with some vegan mayo or cheese (big fan of the Follow Your Heart brand – they’ve got some pretty tasty options!) No matter how you like to stack it, these are always a great, classic choice for on-the-go lunches, picnics, and quick meals at home.

What kind of bread do you use ?
Hi Alyssa! Sorry for the delay in my response! I try to find local organic bread if possible, but also love the "Dave's Killer Bread" brand (which I believe is pictured here – their Organic Good Seed bread) 🙂 Wishing you a beautiful week! -Kaitlin
What is the white grass stuff? And would it taste good with regular non-vegan mayo?
Hi! They’re clover sprouts – light, crisp, delicious and I love sprouting them at home 🙂 (And yes, this will work with any mayo or your other favorite spread like hummus, etc.) Hope you enjoy!
