Ingredients
Scale
Green Goddess Dressing
- 1/2 cup spinach
- 1/3 cup fresh basil
- 2 tbsp fresh dill, roughly chopped
- 2 green onions, roughly chopped
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1 medium sized avocado, pitted and flesh scooped out
- Juice of half a lemon
- 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
- Pinch of salt and pepper
Sandwich Assembly
- 1, 15 oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup cabbage, finely diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
- 1/3 English cucumber, finely diced
- 1 jalapeño pepper, finely diced
- 6–8 slices of your favorite bread
- Hummus
- Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Prepare the Green Goddess Dressing: In a small blender or food processor, add spinach, fresh basil, dill, green onions, nutritional yeast, crushed garlic, avocado flesh, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, then set aside.
- Mash the Chickpeas: Place the rinsed and drained chickpeas in a large mixing bowl. Lightly mash them with a fork or potato masher until mostly mashed but still slightly chunky to your preferred consistency.
- Mix the Vegetables: Add the finely diced cabbage, red onion, cucumber, jalapeño, and a pinch of salt and pepper to the mashed chickpeas. Toss well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
- Add the Dressing: Pour the creamy Green Goddess Dressing over the chickpea mixture. Toss everything thoroughly until all the ingredients are fully coated with the dressing.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Spread hummus on one slice of bread and Dijon mustard on the other. If desired, add extra fresh spinach leaves on the hummus side. Spoon the green goddess salad generously onto the hummus-spread bread, then top with the other slice to form the sandwich. Serve immediately and enjoy.
Notes
- This sandwich is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 day if wrapped tightly to prevent sogginess.
- Adjust the amount of jalapeño to control the spice level.
- Use gluten-free bread if you want to make the sandwich gluten-free.
- The dressing can double as a salad dressing or dip for vegetables.
- Nutritional yeast adds a subtle cheesy flavor and B vitamins, but it can be omitted if unavailable.
