Friday Fuel: Roasted Veggie Sandwich
...
This is my take on a roasted veggie sandwich. I always make this after baking a fresh batch of focaccia bread and the combination is unreal! This is completely vegan with a homemade garlic aioli and pesto spread. This takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves two. Here’s the recipe!
