green goddess sandwich filler

people enjoy a sandwich filling, so here’s another one based off the green goddess salad that’s doing the rounds, except this is better because I made it.

SERVES ENOUGH 3 SANDWICHES

 

6 min prep + 15 min cooking = 21 minutes


INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 avocado

  • 30g fresh basil

  • 10g fresh mint

  • 2 stalks fresh thyme

  • 1 garlic clove, crushed and peeled

  • 5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

  • juice of 1 lemon

  • 3 tbsp nutritional yeast

  • 1 tbsp plant-based Greek-style yoghurt

  • 1/2 head Chinese leaf cabbage (or 1/4 head white cabbage)

  • 200g tempeh

  • salt and pepper

METHOD:

  1. Chop the tempeh into tiny little bits, then you will need to pop it on a lined baking tray (if you’re using an oven). Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper and roast those for 15 minutes in a 200°C oven. Or for your air fryer, mix the oil, salt and pepper in a bowl, then add directly into the air-fryer basket and cook for 10 mins at 200°C.

  2. Slice the avocado and take out the big stone without cutting yourself, then pop that in a food processor. We’re gonna add our fresh herbs (leaves only), the nutritional yeast, garlic clove, olive oil and lemon juice. Give it a good season and blitz till you have a thick and smooth dressing. If too thick, add a splash of water. Thus you have created, the goddess of dressings.

  3. Chop your cabbage into thin slices and add to a large salad bowl along with the green dressing and tempeh. Mix up well.

  4. Stuff your wraps, I like keeping it simple, maybe add some sliced cucumber and some hot sauce. But yeah, that’s it. The filling will last 3 days in an airtight container.
