something different for the lunch box Ingredients:
500 g lean ground beef |
1 small carrot, peeled, finely grated |
1 small zucchini, finely grated |
1 tablespoon tomato sauce |
12 slices multigrain bread |
2 avocados, halved, stone removed, peeled, mashed |
2 ripe tomatoes, thinly sliced |
1 butter lettuce, leaves separated |
135 g hummus |
Directions:
1. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Place the mince, carrot, zucchini and tomato sauce in a large bowl. Use your hands to mix until well combined. Roll 1 heaped tablespoonful of mince mixture into a ball. Place on the lined tray. Repeat with the remaining mince mixture.
2. Place a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add meatballs and cook, turning, for 4-5 minutes or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate to cool slightly. Cut the meatballs in half.
3. Spread half the bread with avocado. Top with meatball, tomato and lettuce. Spread the remaining bread with the hummus and sandwich together. Cut sandwiches in half. Wrap in plastic wrap.
