My husband, Vida, and I love Dave’s Cosmic Subs. Since we’re scaling back on the budget and have so many fresh veggies from the CSA, I decided to attempt them myself. Okay, so obviously they are a bit overflowing. If you don’t want it sloppy and have some to eat with a fork afterwards, use less veggies. This was delicious! Keep your napkins close!
They are Karmic because they’re vegan.
Laura’s Karmic Subs (Serves 2 and then some to lick off the plate)
Foot long French bread, cut in two
½ avocado, large diced or strips – whichever you prefer
½ tomato, diced
½ pepper, cut into long strips
½ onion, cut into long strips
Fresh horseradish or a sauce without egg or cream
Handful of fresh spinach
2 romaine leaves
½ cup cole slaw (recipe below)
1. Saute the pepper and onions in light olive oil on medium heat until soft (about 5-7 minutes.)
2. While sautéing, spread horseradish on both sides of the inside of the bread. Add spinach, lettuce, avocado, and tomato.
3. When done, add grilled onions and peppers.
4. Top with cole slaw.
5. Try to fit in mouth.
Feel free to make variations with your favorite veggies that you have available! If you like mushrooms, those would probably be nice to grill, too.
Fresh Cole Slaw
½ head cabbage, shredded to bite-sized pieces
1 carrot, use a peeler to peel the whole carrot into little strips
¼ cup red wine vinegar
1/3 cup olive oil
Salt & Fresh Ground Pepper
1 tsp ground mustard powder
Couple of dashes lemon pepper
1 TB garlic powder
Combine and mix. Let marinate about 15 minutes.
I suggest not cutting up the veggies so small, say slice the tomato and avocado instead of dice, and that might keeps it from falling out so fast. And maybe melting gooey cheese all over it would hold it together too!! Mmmmm, cheese...
