Recipe: Black bean & pea sandwich (tuna alternative)
Tuna sandwiches are DELICIOUS, and I wanted a veg-friendly alternative.
- Smash some canned beans & peas together with a fork, in a bowl
- Add seasoning of choice (pepper, garlic, olive oil/fake butter)
- I buy unsalted beans/peas, so I add a little salt too. If your canned veg comes pre-salted, you prob don't need any more. The mustard is salty too.
- Toast bread
- Spread fake mayo on one slice and mustard of choice (dijon or brown for me) on the other
- Nuke the bean/pea mix about 20 seconds (only nuke the one serving! You'll wanna refrigerate the rest)
- Form into sandwich
- Nom
Might try adding a sweetener, different seasoning combinations, fake butter instead of mayo, ketchup if ya nasty, barbecue might be good! What about a touch of vinegar? Hmmmmm
Tuna is definitely yummier than the bean/pea mash mix, but this was a good sandwich and I will do it again. I might season more next time.
