The Kitchen of Procrastination

I hope you will all forgive the absence of a post last week, but I was home alone and feeling pathetic.  It was all I could do to eat peas for dinner one night.  But now I’m back, and I will try to post two recipes this week.

As usual, today’s recipe was inspired/requested by my brother.  I’m pretty sure he’s the only one who reads this anyway.  To give you a little background, our Mom didn’t cook much when we were kids.  We ate out a fair amount and had brown rice and tofu about once a week for dinner.  This sandwich was one her masterpieces.  It’s super easy and super nutritious too.

Ross Family Sandwich
Bread (preferably whole or sprouted wheat)
Hummus
Avocado, thinly sliced
Cheddar cheese, sliced
Lettuce
Tomatoes (salted)
Sprouts

Optional: thinly sliced apples (with Gruyere instead of cheddar), radishes, julliened carrots, banana peppers

The key to the sandwich is proper layering.  On one slice of bread, spread some hummus, top with the cheese.  On the other slice, spread out some thinly sliced avocado and sprinkle a little garlic salt.   Pile the veggies on the cheese, the more the better.  Top with the avocado bread slice.   Enjoy.

Best with sweet potato chips and a glass of beer.

P.S. This sandwich can be messy, so be sure to have lots of napkins handy when ready to eat.  I will post the pictures later, but my other computer isn’t working right now.
