Recipe :: Beet Sandwich with Cashew Ginger Sauce

photo delicioussandwichbeets_zps36387c0c.png
This isn't so much a recipe as it a delicious sandwich that I have made for myself a bunch of times this week that I just had to share with everyone. Also, it isn't really a beet sandwich...beets are just my favourite ingredient on it. So really, my whole blog title is a giant lie. Don't worry, you'll forgive me if you try this sandwich.

Here is what's on it:
Tomato
Cucumber
Lettuce (any kind you like, this is spinach with some other mixed greens)
Beets (thinly sliced, uncooked, I just cut off the outer layer that looks dirty)
Carrots (I used precut matchsticks)
Cashew Ginger Sauce (as you can see mine is a spreadable consistency. I think I went heavy on the cashews!)

In my opinion the beets and the sauce really make the sandwich. I have recently realized that I am obsessed with raw beets. They taste so amazing! The first time I had this sandwich it was on a fancy bun but it is equally delicious on regular old sliced bread.

Let me know if you try this sandwich and if you think it is as delicious as I do!

    I never thought of using the beets raw...need to try. The cashew sauce sounds nice too...but cashews are so expensive here :/ Maybe I'll try with hummus instead.

    Looks so yum! I love beetroot and have it a lot on salads, but I love roasted beetroot more!
