VEGGIE + HUMMUS BAGUETTE

March 10, 2020 by Lovoni | Leave a Comment

A sandwich has to be one of the easiest & most widely enjoyed lunches. Almost anything can be added to sandwich, the trick is to keep it fairly simple: good bread, fresh ingredients, a condiment & a spread of some sort. This Veggie + Hummus Baguette is one of my favorite sandwiches. If you’ve never tried this combination of hummus, cucumber, white onion & pickled beets you must.

Here’s a recipe for Smoky Black Bean Hummus (which technically isn’t hummus because it doesn’t contain chickpeas but delicious nonetheless so let’s not split hairs). Use your homemade hummus or store-bought. There’s lots of good brands sold in most grocery stores. I did mention for a perfect sandwich there had to be both a spread & a condiment. Hummus does double duty as both. So does avocado. People may say peanut butter does too but I use both butter & peanut butter on a sandwich. But I digress.

There’s only four filling ingredients in this sandwich & I consider beets to be key. If you’ve never had a sandwich with beets, I urge you to try one. Try this one first of course. I’ve spent almost 20 years living in North America & I’ve never once seen beets on a sandwich. Anywhere. Canada (my first home on this continent) & the US are both guilty of not including beets in sandwich fillings. I know people eat beets here; flip through a cookbook & there’ll be a beet salad recipe inside. So I’m assuming people are eating them. Just not on a sandwich. It’s a travesty. When you’re at the store next, buy some. Aunt Nellie’s seems to be a brand sold everywhere. I like they’re in a jar making for easy storage once opened, no rummaging in the cupboard for a container.

VEGGIE + HUMMUS BAGUETTE

In summer when tomatoes are at their peak, I like to add those too. Another favorite sandwich of mine is tomato, cucumber, shaved white onion with a smear of mayo, salt & pepper. Anyway, no sooner had I shot this baguette this morning than I had the kettle on, boiling water to make a pot of tea. A good sandwich & a cup of tea & I’m in lunch heaven. Toodles, Lovoni xo

VEGGIE + HUMMUS BAGUETTE

A simple veggie sandwich using a few ingredients is all that’s needed for a quick, wholesome & easy lunch. Whether you use a baguette or sliced bread, that choice is yours – just make sure it’s really fresh. When tomatoes are in season I like to add them – sliced & salted; avocado is good too but essentially, I keep it to four ingredients…

Ingredients

US Customary – Metric
  • 12- inch baguette, halved

Finnish Mustard - move over every other mustard I’ve ever loved, this is my new favourite. The recipe is an adaptation of @tessakiros from #fallingcloudberries a cookbook I highly recommend. If a mustard can be decadent then this is it. It’s also so simple to make. 
I purged many of my cookbooks recently. I’m replacing some with cookbooks I want to cook from and will make a point of using. Beth from @oldetymemarketplace along with @downshilohroad & @myrustichouse have started a fun hashtag to encourage us to make & share recipes from our cookbooks #friendswhocookwithabook 
It’d be such fun if you joined along. I know we all have those cookbooks that sit collecting dust. Well time to use them or pitch them. Or treat yourself & buy some new ones. Finding recipes online is convenient but never the same as holding a gorgeous cookbook in your hands. 
If like me you love mustard I urge you to try this mustard recipe. It’s divine.

QUICK & EASY TIRAMISU - a quick word to anyone who QUICK & EASY TIRAMISU - a quick word to anyone who has to add whipped cream to a recipe that’s having its pic taken - never use canned cream. You know the shit in a can I’m talking about?! That stuff breaks down quickly & is total crap. You need to whip the cream yourself and, you need to stabilize it with some powdered sugar. And don’t over whip the cream. Whip 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream in a cold bowl until it’s starting to thicken, add about 1/3 - 1/2 cup powdered sugar, whip until soft peaks form & then you can make great swirls, dollops or pipe it & it’ll behave & stay looking good to have its pic taken. Perfect swirls & dollops = pretty pics. 

Meanwhile, here’s the recipe for this yummy & really easy to make dessert.

SWEET CHILI MISO SALMON & STIR-FRIED VEGGIES - who SWEET CHILI MISO SALMON & STIR-FRIED VEGGIES - who made new year’s resolution to go on a diet? God I’ve been on so many bloody diets. They work of course, as long as one stays on diet of choice. Kudos to those who do. As a mere mortal & coupled with my recipe testing, writing, styling & such I can’t, nor do I want to, eliminate whole food groups from my diet. I fail miserably at it. Then I beat myself up. And the vicious cycle goes around & around. My health - physical & mental & business are my main focuses this year. Diets are kicked to the curb along with negative self-talk. Enough already.  Wholesome foods, moving my body with exercise that makes me happy & I want to do is key. Who else feels the same? 
Here’s the link to this vibrant recipe. I really enjoyed it for dinner last night & last week. Serve it up with some steamed jasmine rice. So good.
