Instructions
- Eggplant Bacon: Preheat oven to 275°, and prep a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the coconut aminos, pepper, paprika, chili powder, garlic, avocado oil and maple syrup in a container and whisk together.
- Slice the eggplant in very thin (bacon like slices).
- Place each thin slice of eggplant on the baking sheet and brush them on both sides with the sauce.
- Bake eggplant at 275 degrees for 40-50 min, or until it begins to get crispy.
- Creamy cashew sauce: Place cashews in a bowl and cover with water to soak them for about 3 hours.
- Drain and rinse thoroughly.
- Place soaked cashews in a food processor or blender with the 1/2 cup of water, garlic, and salt. Puree until smooth. You may add more water to reach desired consistency. This sauce will keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Assemble the sandwich by placing layers of mixed greens, tomatoes, onions, avocado, eggplant bacon on the slices of bread and drizzle the white cream sauce to taste.
- Enjoy!
