Sesame Cucumber & Avocado Sandwich with Miso-Sriracha Mayo

A New Year’s resolution to eat healthy doesn’t have to be painful. This colorful vegetarian sandwich riffs on a bright sushi roll. OMM’s fresh-milled Power Grains bread serves as the protein-packed base for a slaw of quick-pickled cucumbers, cabbage and carrots, sliced avocado, and a creamy umami-packed spread. Add in a couple of slices of roasted tofu or smoked salmon to fill out the composition, if you feel so moved.

Note: If you like, you can mix all of the vegetables in one larger bowl, though I like to keep them separate to make for neater (and prettier) assembly of the sandwiches.
