INGREDIENTS
2 slices Whole Wheat Bread
150g Extra-Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Roasted Chickpeas
1 slice Low-Fat Cheese
1 cup Mixed Roasted Vegetables
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Drain and press the extra-firm tofu to remove excess moisture. Slice tofu into 1/4 inch thick pieces and marinate lightly with salt, pepper, and a splash of olive oil.
In a bowl, toss the mixed vegetables (bell pepper, zucchini, eggplant) and chickpeas with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables and chickpeas for about 20-25 minutes, until tender and slightly crispy.
While the vegetables roast, preheat a panini press or grill pan. Lightly toast the whole wheat bread slices on the grill until they are just crisp.
Assemble the sandwich by layering the roasted tofu, mixed roasted vegetables, roasted chickpeas, and the low-fat cheese slice between the toasted bread slices.
Place the assembled sandwich back in the panini press (or use a heavy pan to press it) for 3-4 minutes until the cheese begins to melt and all ingredients are warmed.
Remove, slice in half, and enjoy your crispy roasted vegetable pressed sandwich.
