Veg Sandwich

Veg Sandwich is a healthy breakfast item and can be made quick if you have already prepared the mint paste. It can also be eaten as a snack in the evening with tea. This is both a low calorie food and a filling one.

Ingredients

• Bread - 6 slices
• Grated carrot - 1/2 cup
• Mint leaves/Pudhina - 1/2 cup, tightly packed
• Green chillies - 2
• Salt - 1 tsp
• Butter - 2 tbsp

Method

1. Grind mint leaves, green chillies and salt together into a smooth paste adding little water.
2. Butter on both sides for all the bread slices.
3. Apply 2 tsp of ground mint paste on one side of the bread and spread 2 tbsp of grated carrot evenly. Close with the other bread slice and press slightly.
4. Heat a pan and grease with little butter. Toast on both sides in low-medium heat until crispy and golden brown.
5. Repeat for the remaining slices. 
6. Cut diagonally and serve hot.

Tips

- I used brown bread in this recipe. You can also use white bread.

- You can pick veggies of your choice for making a healthy sandwich. Shredded cabbage, sliced tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, lettuce and so on.

- You can make the mint paste in bulk and store in the refrigerator.
