Vegan Guacamole and Roasted Veggie Sandwich / Veganiškas sumuštinis su keptomis daržovėmis ir gvakamole
The idea of this sandwich was born spontaneously when I wanted a light, quick and healthy lunch. Usually I choose a hearty meal for lunch, but a couple of these sandwiches were enough to get full and I didn’t even want meat (and that’s really bizarre!). In fact, ciabatta bread, guacamole, toasted tomatoes, onion and…
Oven Baked Buffalo Cauliflower Bites / Orkaitėje kepti kalafioro kąsneliai su Buffalo padažu
I don’t buy cauliflower very often, maybe once every couple months, and if I make something from it, it is usually cauliflower bites fried in breadcrumbs.
