- 1/2 cup vegan mozzarella shreds
- organic herb salad, micro greens, lambs lettuce (or spinach)
- High protein vegan wheat bread
- 1. Put the garbanzo beans, salt, pepper, garlic and olive oil in a food processor and puree the mixture for only about 2 seconds. you want it to be a bit chunky, not fully liquified. Having some of the mix pureed helps hold everything together.
- 2. Dice the olives, bell pepper, and onion and add them to the garbanzo bean mixture along with the mozzarella shreds.
- 3.Lightly toast the bread and allow it to cool before laying down a bed or salad of greens. Put the garbanzo salad on top of the greens, and add another layer of greens on top (This prevents the bread from getting soggy). Now put the last bread on top.
