It's quite hot in the UK at the moment. It isn't a complaint as I do like a warm/hot climate BUT I tend to want to eat raw foods and lighter dishes when it's not cold. So I've been having lots of salads and sandwiches too.
Here's some recipes for yummy sandwiches I've had:-
- Spread Hummus on both slices of the bread - I use brown bread
- Spread some English Mustard on top of the Hummus on one of the slices - I use this mustard because I like the taste and it's vegan
- Add sliced lettuce, cucumber & quartered cherry tomatoes
- Season with salt and pepper
- Slice and enjoy
- Spread Vegan Mayonnaise on both slices of the bread- I use brown bread
