Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup canned white beans (drained and rinsed)
- 1 whole ripe avocado
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper
- 6 slices whole grain sandwich bread
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- 1 whole tomato (sliced)
- 0.25 cup red onion (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons vegan mayo (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the white beans, avocado, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Use a fork to mash the mixture until mostly smooth but still slightly chunky. Set aside.
Toast the 6 slices of bread until golden brown and crispy.
If using vegan mayo, spread a thin layer on one side of 4 of the toasted bread slices.
Start assembling the sandwiches: On 2 of the mayo-spread slices, layer some baby spinach leaves, tomato slices, and red onion.
Spread an even amount of the smashed white bean and avocado mixture on the remaining 2 mayo-spread slices.
Place these slices (bean-avocado side down) on top of the veggie-layered slices to create two double-layer sandwiches.
Top each sandwich with the remaining slices of toasted bread.
Carefully cut each sandwich in half or quarters and secure with toothpicks if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty Smashed White Bean and Avocado Club!
