Description
A tasty AF sandwich that hits all your nutritional post run needs: carbs, protein, healthy fats and electrolyte replenishment.
Ingredients
- 4 ounces, weight Fresh Mozzarella Or Equivalent (Cottage Cheese Also Goes Great!)
- ¼ cups Sun Dried Tomato
- 2 Tablespoons Olives
- 2 teaspoons Capers (can Be Made Without If Unavailable)
- ¼ cups Fresh Basil, Or 1 Teaspoon Dried
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- 4 slices Whole Grain Bread
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil (optional)
Preparation
Roughly chop cheese, tomatoes, olives and capers and throw into a mixing bowl. Add herbs, salt and pepper. Use a fork to mix up and mash the ingredients a little—not too much, we just want to get those flavours distributed.
If you’re using very soft bread, then pop it in the toaster/pan without oil for a minute or so—not to toast it, just to harden the outside. If the bread is already crusty, we’re good to go.
Spread the mix on 2 slices, add the other 2 slices on top. Squish down.
Now comes the oil part: if you’re exercising a lot, you’re gonna need all that extra fatty olive oil. If you’re not, that’s your call. Either way, it tastes great.
Heat the pan (with or without the oil) and put the sandwich in. Put a lid on the pan if you have one; don’t stress too much if you don’t. Cook for 3 or 4 minutes, squishing down with a spatula occasionally. Flip and cook the other side the same way. Both outsides should be nice and crispy, the insides melting together.
Awesome. What a sandwich.
