Kitchen Tools Needed
Measuring Spoons
Measuring Cups
Small Bowl
Ingredients
- 8 slices whole grain or honey oat bread
- 4 ounces whipped cream cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped mixed herbs (I used chives, basil, and dill)
- 4 slices cheese (my favorite is butter dill)
- 1 cup spinach leaves (lettuce, or other greens)
- 1 cucumber (sliced in 1/4 inch slices)
- 2 ripe tomatoes (sliced)
- 2 radishes (sliced thin)
- 1 cup alfalfa or broccoli sprouts
- 1/4 cup honey mustard (I used Woeber’s)
Instructions
Prepare the Cream Cheese Spread: In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese with fresh herbs until well combined. Toast the bread slices, if desired, for added texture.
Assemble the Sandwich Base: Spread the cream cheese mixture generously on both sides of the bread. On the bottom slice, layer the cheese, spinach, cucumber, radish, and tomato. Sprinkle the vegetables with kosher salt and pepper for seasoning.
Add the Finishing Touches: Press the sprouts into the top slice of bread and drizzle with honey mustard.
Add BBQ Sauce: Remove the tofu from the heat, stir in the BBQ sauce, and coat evenly.
Build and Serve: Place the top slice over the bottom layer to create the sandwich. Serve and enjoy!
