A fresh, bright, and healthy sandwich to lighten up humid days. Avocado, mango salsa, and fresh pea shoots come together to make this summer sandwich sing.
Ingredients
  • 2 slices good quality bread
  • 1 small avocado, mashed
  • ¼ cup mango, diced
  • ¼ cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 handful of pea shoots
  • 1 tbsp red onion, chopped
  • a small bunch of cilantro, chopped
  • juice of half a lemon
  • sea salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Lightly toast your bread
  2. Mash your avocado and add salt and pepper to taste, as well as the juice of half a large lemon
  3. Separately, chop your cilantro and red onion. Combine with mango and black beans.
  4. Spread avocado on each slice of bread.
  5. Carefully top one slice with mango salsa
  6. Press pea shoots onto other slice
  7. Assemble quickly and use a toothpick to hold together, if necessary
Notes
•I recommend heavily seasoning the avocado, as the mango salsa contains no salt, pepper, or lemon
•You will likely have extra mango salsa
