    Sloppy and finger licking Grilled Sandwich. With layers of alfredo sauce, Spinach/greens, lentils, veggies, marinara, black pepper, pepita parm and more alfredo!  

    You know when you want a Lasagna or a pasta bake but not all the work with it, and then you also want a sandwich. Well add everything into a sandwich. The sauces, fillings, veggies and eat away. With the Lasagna, there is also always this surprise element of how it will turn out. You don’t always know the the seasoning and salt of the dish until it is done. and then there is a long wait to bake and then cool before eating as well. So I say make Lasgna grilled sammies. 

    Remember this nut-free Cauliflower alfredo sauce in the Spinach Artichoke Alfredo Lasagna. I used that same alfredo and lentil veggie pasta sauce to make this sloppy grilled sammie. Add your favorite vegan cheese shreds for a stickier sandwich. 

    The sauces and the fillings are gluten, soy and nut-free. Use gluten-free bread to make gf

      This sandwich is amazing! I made them at a BBQ yesterday. Cooked them on the grill and everything 🙂 They were a huge hit – everyone was asking for the recipe. I’m sad that I didn’t take any pictures 🙂

      We made these tonight and they were great. Didn’t have any cauliflower so we made a cashew alfredo instead.
