The BEST sandwich ever – Vegan grilled cheese sandwich

Hey there!

 

I like bread, especially the day after a big night-out. All I want is bread, don’t know why, but my body is like, get them carbohydrates in!! However me as a real foodie, am not happy with a plain piece of bread, how could I, being called Fanny, the foodie?

 

After last Friday night I just needed some bready yumminess on my plate. Yes, my friends and I did have a pretty fun night and yes there might have been a tad too much liquid involved, but I am young, so don’t judge. Anyways, let me get to the point of this post, I wanted a sandwich, I wanted a good old toasty, so I went into the kitchen and got creative and the end result was this friggin yummy piece of heaven. A sandwich stuffed with a vegan cheese sauce, garlicky mushrooms, rocket, red onion and sun dried tomatoes, oh my God, AMAZING. There aren’t even words to describe the explosion of flavours that was happening in my mouth when I tried this , major foodgasm! Even my sister approved, she said: Fanny, this is the best sandwich I have ever eate, in fact, this is one of the best things I have ever had. See, it must have been pretty darn great if even my sister approves.

 

Anyways enough rambling, here’s the recipe

 

• 120g silken tofu
• 20g nutritional yeast
• 2tbs cashew butter
• ½tsp salt
• 1tsp lemon juice
• 200g mushrooms
• 1clove of garlic
• olive oil
• pepper
• salt
• rocket (a handful)
• 16 sun dried tomato halves
• 1/2 red onion, sliced
• 8 slices of whole wheat bread
• olive oil to brush your bread

 

1. For the “cheese” add silken tofu, nutritional yeast, cachew butter, salt and lemon juice into a blender, blend until smooth. Put aside for later.
2. For the garlicky mushrooms, slice the mushrooms and chop up the garlic, add some olive oil into a pan and fry the farlic and mushrooms over medium heat until the muhsrooms are completely cooked. Add salt and pepper to taste.
3. Now you’ve just got to stack your sandwiches. Smear four slices with the “cheese” sauce, top with rocket, 4 sun-dried tomatoes per sandwich, red onion and the garlicky mushrooms. Top with the other slice of bread.
4. Brush the outside of your sandwiches with olive oil and fry in the same pan in which you ealier prepared your mushrooms. I like to place something heavy on top of my sandwiches so they sort of get pressed together as if you would prepare them in a Panini maker. Just place some aluminium foil on top of your sandwiches and place something heavy on top if, I used a Quattro staggioni jar, which was filled with granola. However you could also go the easy way and just use a Panini make, if you happen to have one.
5. Fry on both sides until golden brown, this only takes a couple of minutes.
6. Slice in half and serve with a side salad, some baked veggies or just by itself.

Voila, guys, this is it, the best Sandwich you will ever taste. This. Is. Amazing! That’s it then cause there’s nothing else to be said, just try it and you’ll know what I mean, you are gonna be speechless.
