Hot Veggie Sandwiches

About

A hot sandwich is a perfect lunch, and this vegetarian recipe really hits the spot! This recipe uses the Carb Manager Cloud Bread, so please have this already prepared before making your sandwich. A blanket of melted gouda cheese binds all the nutritious ingredients together!

Ingredients

2 ounce mushrooms
1 ¾ ounce zucchini
1 ¾ ounce orange bell pepper
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon oregano, dried
2 ounce gouda cheese
2 2 pieces keto cloud bread
2 teaspoon butter, salted
2 teaspoon mayonnaise, store bought
½ ounce spinach, raw
½ tablespoon butter, salted

Instructions

Start by finely dicing the mushrooms, zucchini, and bell pepper. The pieces need to be small and uniform in shape and size so your sandwich has an even texture and flavor later on. Combine the diced veggies with all the seasonings in a bowl.
Slice the gouda cheese into thin slices. Have this ingredient ready and set aside with the chopped veggies.
Have 4 pieces of Carb Manager Cloud Bread prepared in front of you. Melt 1 tsp of the butter in a large skillet over low heat, and toast 2 pieces of the bread in the butter. This should only take about 30 seconds. Repeat this process for the remaining slices of cloud bread and another 1 tsp of butter. Then, spread the mayonnaise evenly over 2 pieces of the bread.
Arrange the spinach evenly over the 2 slices of cloud bread with mayo on them. These will serve as the bottoms of your 2 sandwiches.
Melt the second amount of butter in the same skillet over high heat. Toss the diced veggies in the hot butter and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the vegetables are cooked through, soft, and have a light char on their edges.
Turn the stove heat down to low. Use a spatula to divide the cooked veggies in half and shape the halves into circular patties.
Place the cheese evenly over the 2 vegetable patties. Place a lid over the skillet until the cheese melts. The cheese will act as a glue for your veggies mixture.
Gently transfer the two vegetable patties with cheese to your sandwiches.over the spinach. You can use a wide spatula or slide them from a non-stick pan straight onto the spinach. This does not have to be a perfect process, as the goal is simply to transfer all the vegetables to the bread.
Top your sandwiches off with the bare slices of cloud bread and enjoy!
