Chickpea Cutlet + Garlicky Kale Sandwich



That's right, live, i'm eating that above sandwich as i'm posting about the above sandwich! When I made Chickpea Cutlets the other night I only cooked 2 of the 4. The other two I wrapped up, uncooked, to be used at a later date. Lunch today is that later date. I lightly fried up both pieces as usual. Then I sauteed lots of garlic with chopped kale to get some greens and goodness in my lunch. Spread some vegan mayo on both sides of the delicious ciabatta roll which i then proceeded to load with freshly ground black pepper (my one true love). I thought about making a flavored mayo for the spread but realized I needed to just eat this meal before Reno woke up. It turns out I don't need a flavored mayo...the chickpea cutlets are so flavorful and lemony and the kale so garlicky none was needed. This will be a common use of leftover cutlets in my house..exactly how I made it today.

Man, I wish I was there, live, with you. I'm still eating Thanksgiving leftovers.

the ciabatta roll looks perfectly made. i have yet to make the cutlets but if there are leftovers, this is what i'm doing with them!

That looks beyond delicious. I had kale for lunch too, but I just had it with some quinoa.

Holy guacamole, that looks good! I share your love for freshly ground black pepper and all other things on that sandwich.

What a good idea. I never would have thought to put that kale on a sandwich.

Ha! MY lunch today included a sandwich with garlicky-kale, except I had a Sunshine veggie-burger instead of the cutlets, and it was on Ezekiel sprouted-grain bread instead of the ciabatta roll. your sandwich is a delicious way to finish off the extra cutlets!

So those are the famous cutlets!
My book isn't here yet, I'm hoping it gets here tomorrow.
If I can find kale again, I have to try that sandwich.
