AVOCADO, CREAM CHEESE, AND ALFALFA SPROUT SANDWICH
This sandwich is modeled after a cafeteria sandwich I had years ago, made with whole wheat bread, cream cheese, avocados, cayenne, and alfalfa sprouts. I've added the crusty bread, olives and onion. I like that it is layered so you get lots of different flavors and textures from top to bottom, and it holds together best if you use thick-sliced, hefty bread and let it rest and chill a while. The variations are endless -- add garlic or chives or herbs to the cream cheese; mirror-image the ingredients for a fatter sandwich; add bacon or cheese; for a spicier bite substitute radish sprouts for some of the alfalfa sprouts, etc.
