- ½ cup cooked or canned cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 tbsp. vegan pesto sauce, store-bought or homemade, plus extra, to taste
- 2 slices good sandwich bread
- 2 artichoke hearts, canned or frozen and thawed, coarsely chopped
- about ¼ cup baby arugula or spinach leaves
- ½ avocado, sliced thinly
- salt and pepper to taste
- olive oil, for grilling
Place beans into a small bowl and mash with a fork until chunky. Stir in pesto. Spread on one of your bread slices. Top with artichoke hearts, followed by spinach or arugula, then avocado slices. Drizzle with as much additional pesto as you like between layers. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and top with remaining bread slice.
Coat the bottom of a large flat-bottomed skillet with oil and place over medium heat. Place sandwich into skillet and grill until lightly browned on bottom, about 4 minutes. Flip and grill until browned on other side, about 4 minutes more.
