I often rummage through my refrigerator to develop new recipes, simply based on what I find in there. Here is a delicious, healthy, quick and easy sandwich filling. Amounts can easily be increased to accommodate the number of sandwiches you would like to make.

2 slices whole grain bread (I love Honey Whole Wheat sold by Great Harvest Bread Co.)
1/4 soft avocado (I buy these every time I go to the grocery so I always have one or two on hand ready to use.)
1/2 cup tofu (I used soft but firm would be ok too.)
dash Tabasco sauce (optional)
~ 1 teaspoon ground flaxseeds
dash of herb seasoning (I used Mrs. Dash original)
hummus
dark green lettuce (I used fresh spinach leaves)

Directions:

Spread bread slices with hummus.
Using fork, mash tofu and avocado together in a small bowl.
Mix in Tabasco sauce if desired.
Spread on 1 slice of bread. Sprinkle tofu-avocado mixture with flaxseeds and herb seasoning. Cover with lettuce, and then top with second slice of bread.
Serve with fresh fruit and iced green tea.

Some of the filling will likely escape - just scoop it up with a spoon and enjoy. There are many ways to vary this recipe; add onions or tomato slices, use broccoli sprouts, use almond butter instead of hummus.

Use your creativity, imagination, and what you have on hand. Enjoy!

In my book, I have included the names of several dozen cookbooks which feature recipes that are compatible with (or that can be modified to fit) the ultra-healthy diet I follow, including some resources which are free.

I am also collecting recipes to include in a future edition of my book as well as to be featured on "Menus and Recipes". I have asked readers to send me any recipes that they have found to be great-tasting and easy to prepare, and that emphasize the nutritional guidelines which are outlined in my book. I will also consider taking people's favorite "normal" recipes and posting versions which are modified for maximal cancer prevention.

If you have a recipe you wish to submit for possible inclusion in either my book or on this web page, please send it to me. If the recipe is from a cookbook or other printed source, please include the name, author, and publisher of the source so that I can ask for permission to reprint the recipe. If it is a recipe you created, or a family favorite, please indicate that, also.
