Wild mayo and ferocious cheese


What's in this box:


Savoury box:
- cheese and avocado sandwich with hummus
- avocado and cherry tomatoes sandwich with vegan mayo

Sweet box:
- banana and blueberry
- strawberries
- peanut butter caramel and raspberry chia jam

Method and Recipes

For the sandwiches, you will need:
4 slices of your favourite gluten free bread
1 slice vegan cheese (I used the Tesco coconut oil based cheddar)
4 cherry tomatoes
half an avocado
hummus or vegan mayo

I just toasted the bread slightly, made the sandwiches with what I had at home, trimmed them slightly and cut each sandwich into three fingers. 
Some notes: I am experimenting with vegan cheeses. I think it is a good idea for me to have a trusted brand of vegan cheese to refer to when I get the cravings. The Tesco one was disgusting. Horrid flavour, horrid smell. I will not buy again.
I made a hummus one and a mayo one because I had some of each in my fridge, but you don't have to. The mayo, avocado and tomato sandwich was my favourite. Do not forget a pinch of salt!

For the sweet box, I just put a good tablespoon of my omnipresent peanut butter caramel in the small container, and a couple of tablespoons raspberry chia jam
- 1/2 cup raspberries
1/2 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tbsp chia seeds
Mash the first two ingredients with a fork (or blitz them), taste, adjust the sweetness, then add the chia seeds and give it a mix. Leave it in the fridge for a bit and it will turn into jam. 
Word to the wise: this jam does not last very long. I recommend making small quantities (even smaller than the above) since you can always make it as you go.

I had the strawberries for my snack, and for pudding after the sandwiches I poured the sauces on the banana and blueberry. That was one of the best combos so far.
