Shopping List
- 66666667/100000000 cup cooked chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 bread slices
- 1 to 2 slices vegan cheddar-style cheese
- 1/4 cup kimchi, drained and chopped
- 2 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise or tahini
- softened vegan butter or coconut oil, for spreading
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven broiler.
- Step 2: In a bowl, mash the chickpeas and mayonnaise or tahini until it reaches a chunky and creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Step 3: Spread some vegan butter or oil on both sides of the bread slices. Place the slices on a baking sheet, and broil 1 to 2 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Remove from the heat and flip over the slices, so that the un-toasted side is now on top. Spread the chickpea mash, all the way to the edges of one of the bread slices. Top with the cheese.
- Step 4: Return the layered bread to the preheated oven (leave the un-topped slice on the counter), and broil 3 minutes, or until the cheese has just started to melt. Add the other slice back to the oven, toasted side down. Leave both slices in the oven for another 1 minute and then remove. Keep an eye on them here to avoid burning.
- Serve: Top the chickpea mash slice with the kimchi and the other slice of bread. Enjoy.
