This is a light and refreshing snack recipe that I sometimes pair with this recipe for Spicy Vegetarian Black Bean Soup. Yes, that is a lot of veggies! I like it that way though, as the cheese and cucumber of the "sandwich" balances the spicy in the soup.
I also sometimes add a bit of other seasoning to the layer of goat cheese, such as garlic powder to switch up the Flavor. Play around and make it your own that way! It doesn't get any easier than this really.
Ingredients:
2 Tbs. goat cheese
1 (2-oz) whole-grain English muffin, split, toasted
1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
6 (1/8" thick) slices English cucumber
2 Tbs. alfalfa sprouts
Instructions: Spread 1 tablespoon goat cheese on each half of warm English muffin. Sprinkle with pepper (and seasoning of your choice to switch it up). Top with 3 slices of cucumber each and about 1 tablespoon of alfalfa sprouts each and voila!
