Goat Cheese Sandwich with Veggies
A simple and light vegetarian sandwich that compliments savory goat cheese with pepper jelly, cucumber, and arugula. Grilled or fresh!
Servings: 1 person
Ingredients
- 2 slices sandwich bread
- 2-3 teaspoons sweet chili jam or pepper jelly
- 9 thin slices of English cucumber (seedless)
- 1 small handful of arugula/rocket
- 1 oz fresh goat cheese, unflavored
Instructions
- Spread goat cheese on one slice of bread and sweet chili jam/sauce on the other side. Add cucumber and arugula, then assemble the sandwich and eat!
- For a grilled goat cheese sandwich - heat olive oil over medium low heat in a medium to large skillet. Toast on both sides, about 2-3 minutes. It's best to add cucumber after toasting to preserve the crisp texture!
Notes
- See the post for recommendations on sweet chili sauce or jam. My favorite is Trader Joe's.
- Make this sandwich grilled/toasted in the winter (sometimes I prefer it without the cucumber) and fresh in the summer! It also makes fantastic vegetarian party sandwiches.
- Use gluten free bread to make this GF.
