I keep forgetting to share the new vegetarian recipes we're trying out and falling in love with since I set a new goal for myself to branch out more. Here's one of the latest: Smashed Chickpea & Avocado Salad Sandwich.

It really is fabulous. Shane likes it, too, which is really saying something because at first he looked at me like I was insane when I told him to plop some gooey, puke-green mixture on his bread. Serve this sucker with some spinach and sweet pea sprouts and wow... I ate the extra with a spoon! Great source of protein and good-for-you fats. I've probably had it three times in two weeks and I'd happily eat another batch tonight if we weren't low on supplies.
Another winner from Maria and her husband at Two Peas and Their Pod. I turn to them often for ideas often because most are made with simple ingredients and can be prepared quickly. I also feel I can relate to them a bit because while Maria is a vegetarian her husband is most certainly not!
And here's a new version to try, posted today: Edamame Avocado Salad Sandwich.
