Healthy Meal Recipe - Lettuce Sandwich (No Bread!)

It tastes amazing and really does feel like you're eating a cheese and tomato sandwich, except a lot better, this version is fresh and crunchy and doesn't clog your digestive system.

Before you get going with this recipe, you'll need to make up a batch of 'cheez' from pine nuts.

This is REALLY yummy and tastes like a smoky cream cheese.

Ingredients: Pine Nut Cheez

1x cup pine nuts
1/4 cup water
2x stalks celery
1x lemon
10x Sundried Tomato

Method: Pine Nut Cheez

Place all ingredients into a blender and blend into a smooth and creamy pate.

Now you're ready to make your sandwich!

Ingredients: Lettuce Sandwich

Romaine Lettuce Leaves
1x Large Avocado
2x Tomatoes (sliced)
Pine Nut Cheez

Method: Lettuce Sandwich

Mash the avocado in a bowl and add whatever spices you prefer (we added some date mustard - mustard made from a blend of dates and mustard seeds - in this recipe and it was great!)

Take a romaine lettuce leaf and spread on a layer of pine nut cheez.

Next add some sliced tomato.

Then add a layer of avocado.

Close the sandwich with another romaine lettuce leaf.

Makes about 4 big lettuce sandwiches.

You will have some pine nut cheez left over, and this can be used in a multitude of ways, spread on any raw vegetables, or as a salad dressing or a dip. You'll definitely be finishing it soon!
