TLT Sandwich

TLT Sandwich (Tofu/Lettuce/Tomato)

This decadent, vegetarian sandwich is the little cousin of the famous BLT (bacon-lettuce-tomato) sandwich. Once the marinade has been absorbed by the tofu slices, the TLT is ready in just a few minutes. Then, feel free to grill it in a panini press! Bon Matin 100% Whole Wheat Bread contains 4 g of fibre per serving (2 slices), making it a wise choice to increase your fibre intake. This Quebec company also offers a line of breads that contain no added fat or sugar.

Hubert’s tip: You can use store-bought smoked tofu as a plant-based protein alternative to bacon!
