VEGGIE SANDWICHES A.K.A. VEGGIMICHES
I used to make these all the time in southern Cali for my BF. Now that I've relocated to the far North, certain fresh ingredients are harder to come by, so I haven't been able to make this sandwich in ages. I'm not sure where the "m" stems from in "veggiemich," that's just what we ended up calling it. :) The reason for mixing the mustard and dressing prior to spreading on the bread is to avoid uneven spreading while keeping the calorie count down. Everything can of course be omitted or replaced to your taste; you can even make it Atkins-friendly by making a lettuce pocket and omitting the bread, hehe! We loved using a lot of pepper for a nice kick. You can make it a more filling meal with other additions, too! ^_^

Steps:
- Layer lettuce, cucumber, avocado, tomato, and alfalfa sprouts on 2 bread slices - the elements move around less when layered in that order. (For a more filling meal: add chicken, tuna, a meaty mushroom e.g. portobello, eggplant, or tofu at this point.).
- Mix mustard, Ranch, and pepper - can substitute favored mustard and dressing to taste, e.g. honey mustard, and increase amounts for more kick.
- Spread mustard mixture onto remaining 2 breadslices, complete the sandwiches, and enjoy your very healthy and refreshing meal! Feel free to add things, e.g. bell pepper, onions - this is just my perfect combination.
VEGEMITE SANDWICH TRADIONAL (VEGGIE SANGER)
I can't believe a traditional "Veggie Sanger" has not been posted! "No Worries Mate"................ I am here to fix that! Vegemite sandwiches are terrific for school lunches, and used to be an Aussie Tradition, not so long ago but not so sure about now. Vegemite is high in Vitamin B .....but it is quite salty so it probably not considered a health food as such because of the saltiness. But they do not go soggy like a lot of sandwich's do at school! A Vegemite sandwich is a quick and easy snack for both kids and adults. All you will need is bread and butter or margarine .......and of course that jar of black gold "Vegemite! " Of course you can add things if you prefer, like cheese or avocado! Even use crumpets instead of bread, for an amazing snack. Come be an "Happy Little Vegemite!"

THE BEST VEGGIE SANDWICH
A local restaurant used to serve a version of this sandwich but when they discontinued it, I experimented and made it better with the addition of dry roasted sesame seeds and using English Muffins instead of whole wheat bread. Garnish each with a black olive, if desired.
