Chickpea, Tomato and Pesto Veggie Sandwich
We can all agree that there’s nothing more disappointing than a veggie sandwich that lacks taste and texture. This one’s packed with fresh, tasty ingredients that will take your classic veggie sandwich to a whole new level! I recommend preparing your chickpea mixture at the beginning of the week, so that you only have to assemble the sandwich the same day!
Enjoy!
