These vegetarian sandwiches from F&W’s Ben Mims feature avocado two ways—mashed and in a chunky salad. Both are tossed with a tangy chile-herb dressing.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp canola oil
- finely grated zest of 1/2 lime
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1 tsp finely chopped mint, plus more for garnish
- 1/2 tsp finely chopped tarragon, plus more for garnish
- 1 red Thai chile, seeded and minced
- 1/2 Hass avocado, diced
- salt
- pepper
- 4 small slices of whole-grain bread
- 2 tbsp thawed frozen peas
Directions
- In a small bowl, whisk the canola oil with the lime zest and juice, the 1 teaspoon of mint, 1/2 teaspoon of tarragon and the chile. Stir in the avocado, season with salt and pepper and let stand for 10 minutes.
- Mash one-third of the marinated avocado on the bread. Stir the peas into the remaining avocado and spoon on top of the sandwiches. Garnish with finely chopped mint and tarragon.
