Description
I knew this sandwich would be delicious as soon as I put it together. And I was right. As my husband watched me eat it, he couldn’t resist asking me for a bite. We ended up making two more. Rather than using a meat substitute, this vegan sandwich features a locally grown vegetable: beet. Sliced roasted beets make an ideal vegan alternative to cold cuts.
The secret is in the roasting. Rather than wrapping them on foil, I prefer to use a cast iron pan. To make this sandwich, you first need roast the beets in the oven. Next, you simply layer them with the other ingredients between two slices of bread!
