Ingredients
  

For the filling
  • 1.5 cups edamame Shelled and cooked
  • 0.25 cup cilantro Chopped
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice For flavor
  • 1 tablespoon chopped scallions For additional flavor
  • 0.5 small clove garlic Or a pinch of garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil For blending
  • 1-3 tablespoons water To achieve the smooth consistency
  • 0.5 teaspoon sea salt More to taste as needed
For assembling the sandwich
  • 8 slices eureka! Organic Top Seed Bread Or any bread of choice
  • cucumber slices Fresh and crunchy
  • 1 small avocado Sliced
  • pickled onions For tanginess
  • 2 cups arugula and/or micro greens For added nutrition

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place the edamame, cilantro, lemon juice, scallions, garlic, and sea salt into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until chopped.
  2. Add the olive oil and blend until smooth. Gradually add up to 3 tablespoons of water to achieve a smooth, spreadable consistency. Season to taste with more salt if needed.
  3. Chill the filling until ready to use. You can prepare this in advance and keep it in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.
Assembly
  1. Spread the edamame sandwich filling generously on 4 slices of bread.
  2. Top the filling with cucumber and avocado slices, add some pickled onions, and a handful of arugula. Finish off with the remaining slices of bread.

Notes

To ensure freshness, store the avocado filling in an airtight container in the fridge, where it can last for up to 3 to 4 days. Store the bread separately to prevent it from getting soggy. Avoid freezing the assembled sandwich as the quality might be compromised. Instead, freeze the edamame filling and make fresh sandwiches as needed.
