Spicy Tofu Sandwich
This is one of my favourite sandwiches because it’s quick to assemble, packs a punch of heat (from the hummus) and so creamy and delicious. Use pre-marinated tofu from the store to save time, or marinate your own at home.
Ingredients
- 2 slices whole wheat bread
- 2 Tbsp jalapeno hummus
- 50 g firm tofu pre-marinated
- 1/2 avocado mashed
- 2 slices tomato
- 4 slices cucumber
- 2 Tbsp alfalfa sprouts
Instructions
- Slice the tofu, cucumber, and tomato
- Spread one slice of the bread with jalapeno hummus and spread the mashed avocado on the other
- Layer the tofu, cucumber and tomato filling on the piece of avocado bread. Add salt and pepper, then add the sprouts and finally, place the bread slice with the hummus on top.
- Cut sandwich and enjoy!
Notes
Marinating your own tofu is easy! Simply slice it to size, then place it in a small lidded container, covered in low sodium soy sauce or tamari. Place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes - the longer you let it marinate the deeper the flavour it will take on.
