Yummy Sandwiches and Chocolate Topped Energy Bars!




I was in the mood for a gigantic sandwich today and I envisioned a turkey, cheese avocado and slaw sandwich. I think I succeeded. I used Tofurky and Daiya products.

The slaw is a combination of kale, cabbage, red onion, carrot with a creamy Vegenaise based dressing with mustard.
BBQ pulled " pork" made with soy tvp chunks. I wanted to use jackfruit but didn't have any. This was great with the kale slaw!
Served on toasted white bread.



These are the usual energy bars I make but this time I had slightly less peanut butter than the recipe called for so the mixture seemed a little drier to me. The remedy for that was to add a layer of dark chocolate on top that I melted with coconut oil. Worked great!

The bottom layer is toasted oats, sunflower, pumpkin and chia seeds, almonds, chocolate chips, dried cranberries and apricots. This is all mixed with melted peanut butter and agave. I pressed the mixture into a pan and chilled for a couple hours. Then topped it with the melted chocolate and chilled overnight.

I agree! Plus, I could inhale that entire pan of chocolate energy bars guilt free after eating that incredible kale slaw. I swear, I need a drool bib whenever I read your blog :)

These food items look so tasty. Thanks for sharing reviews here. I am really impressed with that chocolate bar. It will be a good idea for my son’s birthday bash which we are hosting next weekend at one of popular event venues in Chicago. Hopefully, he will like it.
