This is my favourite of all sandwiches. It makes a wonderfully fresh and healthy lunch when accompanied by a berry-and-yoghurt smoothie.
Ingredients:
1 whole wheat ciabatta (20 cm long) or 1 piece whole wheat baguette (20 cm long)
2 tablespoons cream cheese (philadelphia for example)
2 lettuce leaves
1/2 tomato, slices
1/4 cucumber, unpeeled, sliced
1/2 cup shredded carrot
4 -5 basil leaves
2 tablespoons basil pesto
salt
black pepper
Directions:
1. Slice bread horizontally in half.
2. Spread cream cheese on one half. Sprinkle with some salt and pepper.
3. Layer lettuce leaves and tomato, sprinkle with salt.
4. Then layer cucumber and carrots, sprinkle with pepper. End with the basil leaves.
5. Spread pesto on other half of the bread and lay it on top of the basil leaves to make a sandwich.
6. Enjoy!
