Roasted Beet, Mushrooms, Spinach and Garlic Vegan Sandwich
(1-2 servings)
- 2-5 large slices raw beet (about 1/4” to 1/3” thick)
- 12-14 medium-size organic cremini and shitake mushrooms, washed and sliced (or a mix of various mushrooms you like)
- a big handful of organic spinach, washed
- 2 cloves of organic garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp. high quality olive oil
- a good pinch unrefined grey sea salt
- black pepper, to taste
- 2-4 slices of organic wholegrain bread, toasted (I used a crusty spelt bread)
- organic mayo (optional)
Warm 1 tbsp. olive oil in a large pan over medium heat (be careful that the oil doesn’t start smoking).
Place the beet slices in the pan and grill each side (1-2 min each side), put aside in a plate.
Add approx. 2 tbsp. olive oil and sauté all the mushrooms in the pan for about 5 min or until they are roasted to your taste, reduce the temperature to low-medium heat, add the spinach and the minced garlic, cover with a lid and wait 30-45 seconds.
Mix. Add a pinch or two of sea salt, mix.
To assemble the sandwich, put a little bit of mayo on your toasts (optional), then place the beet slices on top of the toasts, add the mushroom-spinach mixture on top and place the other toast on top (or if you want less bread, only 1 slice per sandwich is fine too).
