Vegan Recipe of the Week - Summer Sandwiches - MLT

Over the next few weeks on Vegan Vox Blog, I will be sharing a series of vegan summer sandwich ideas. Starting with a favourite in our house - The MLT (Mushroom, Lettuce and Tomato)

Ingredients:

A Portobello Mushroom

Beef Tomato, sliced

A Crusty Bread Roll

Tomato Salsa - see my recipe here

Sweet Gem Lettuce Leaves

Olive Oil

Method:

Slice the bread roll and spread the bottom half with the salsa and add the lettuce and tomato. Griddle the mushroom in a griddle pan with a little oil, turning over half way until cooked on both sides. Add the cooked mushroom to the sandwich, top with a little more homemade salsa and serve with a salsa dip or a few mixed olives.

Eat and Enjoy!

The Ordinary Vegan - Batchelors Super Pasta 'n' Sauce

The Ordinary Vegan for those new to the blog, is a weekly feature every Monday, sharing an ordinary supermarket or high street product, which just happens to be vegan. This week, is the turn of Batchelors Super Pasta'n'Sauce. The Tomato, Onion & Herb flavour is one of three vegan flavours, and this is sold at most supermarkets, grocery stores and corner shops. The other vegan flavours are Tomato & Mediterranean Veg and Tomato & Basil.

It is a dried packet meal, to which you add boiling water and a knob of vegan butter, and then cook on the hob or in the microwave. The meal takes around 10 minutes to make and is a good base to add other veggies, I often add a handful of olives, mushrooms or just grate some vegan cheese over and cracked black pepper. It serves one person as a meal or two as a side dish.

Alternatively sprinkle with chopped nuts, seeds or a little vegan parmesan. These packets are good to take travelling, camping, to work or just to keep in the cupboard for when you haven't got the time or energy to make a sauce from scratch. 

If home cooking is more your thing, come back tomorrow as every Tuesday is a brand new vegan Recipe of the Week.

Big Vegan Love,
