Just because it has to be quick, doesn't mean it can't be tasty. It's just as easy to make a good sandwich as it is a bad one! This fresh avocado sandwich is a slightly more substantial and compact version of a salad, and can be eaten on the go. There's no meat or cheese in this sandwich, but you honestly don't miss them. The avocado guarantees a tasty, smooth and creamy note, which is then enhanced by the even creamier, irresistible cashew sauce. The two flavours go together beautifully! The crispy wholegrain toast provides the necessary texture, while the crunchy vegetables add a wonderfully fresh touch. There's nothing to stop you using other vegetables, too, as long as the avocado, cashew sauce and crispy toast remain!
