INGREDIENTS
2 slices whole wheat bread
1 cup mixed grilled vegetables
1 tbsp basil pesto
4 oz grilled extra-firm tofu
1 oz goat cheese
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
PREPARATION
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Slice the bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into even pieces and toss with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, and fresh herbs for a quick herb marinade.
Grill the vegetables until tender and slightly charred, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Slice the extra-firm tofu into 1/4-inch thick pieces and grill for about 3-4 minutes per side until grill marks appear.
Lightly toast the whole wheat bread slices on the grill or in a toaster.
Spread 1 tablespoon of basil pesto evenly on one side of each toasted bread slice.
Layer the grilled vegetables and tofu on one slice of bread. Sprinkle the top with goat cheese and a dusting of nutritional yeast for extra umami flavor.
Top with the second slice of bread, cut the sandwich in half if desired, and serve immediately.
