This week I’m all about the Summer sandwiches, using as much fresh Summer produce as I can fit between two pieces of bread! This sandwich is definitely that and let me tell you, I couldn’t have fit even one more thing in this sandwich!

My sandwich starts with a bit of grainy mustard (or Dijon, if you prefer). Next is a layer of baby spinach, followed by mashed avocado, then goat cheese (with a good bit of pepper), chives, cucumber and sunflower sprouts. The bread is a lovely 12-Grain bread that is toasted. It’s delicious, filling and a pretty guilt-free sandwich.

Ingredients and Substitutions

Bread – a nice seedy, multigrain bread is perfect for this sandwich, but any bread you have or enjoy is just fine.

Goat Cheese – if you aren’t a fan of goat cheese, cream cheese is a nice substitution.
