2 tbsp unsweetened plain plant based yogurt

Juice of 1/2 a lemon

1 tbsp nutritional yeast

1 tbsp fresh dill, minced

1 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp dry parsley

3 tbsp cold water

8 pieces LightLife Smart Bacon

4 cups lettuce

1 medium heirloom tomato, sliced

1/4 medium red onion, thinly sliced

3-4 tbsp pickled jalapeno

1, 15 oz canned chickpeas

3 sub sandwich rolls, sliced partially open

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

To a medium bowl, combine the tahini, yogurt, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until the sauce thickens then add 3 tablespoons of cold water to thin it out. If still too thick, add a tablespoon more water at a time while whisking until the dressing is to your liking. Adjust with more salt to taste as desired.

Cook the Smart Bacon according to package instructions then set to the side.

To a large cutting board add your lettuce then top with the tomato slices, red onion slices, pickled jalapeno and then the chickpeas. Season the filling with a pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper then drizzle on half the dressing.

With a large sharp chef’s knife, proceed to cut the ingredients into small pieces. Use the knife to mix and combine the ingredients evenly in the dressing. Add more dressing if needed.

Use the knife to shape a portion of the mixture to fit your roll. Place the open sub roll overtop then use the knife to hold the filling while you flip it over. Drizzle more dressing overtop if needed then enjoy.
