I made these for dinner last night (except left off the sprouts). When I told my DH & 2 sons what they were, they all said "weird!" I told them they all had to at least take a bite or two since they were already made--this was a mistake because then I had to make three more sandwiches! They were truly delicious! I'm actually going to use the left over cream cheese and guacamole to have one for my dinner tonight! Thanks ST for such a healthy and awesome sandwich recipe! -
This was really good. I made 2. One for me and one for DD #2. She had the sprouts on hers, but I don't care for them and left them off. The crunchiness was great and I loved the combination of flavors. I made ours on 12 grain bread. This is a keeper and a recipe I will be using for a long time!! Thanks sweetomato!!! -
The sunflower seeds really make this special. And the carrots add something nice (and different) too. Though, all the flavors go really well together. I omitted the sprouts and used more cucumbers. -
This sandwich was great! I used an oat type of bread, but other than that, made as directed. Don't forget to salt and pepper the tomatoes. -
I am so glad that others enjoy this sandwich. I go to Weck's about once a month and always order the veggie delight. It was kind of scary at first because it has so many healthy ingredients, but they all compliment each other nicely. I omit the cream cheese, cucumbers, carrots and sunflower seeds to keep it simple, but I do add almond slices and toast the bread. The guacamole I use is just a quick mixture of mashed avocado and garlic salt. One of my favorite vegetarian sandwiches.

I live in the desert with my husband where we enjoy traveling, camping, amateur astronomy, and listening to short-wave broadcasts on our vintage radios.
We like to eat wholesome, nutritious foods free of pesticides and preservatives; therefore, we try to purchase only organic foods. I love to cook and am discovering new ways to prepare fish and vegetables. My ancestors came from Scotland, England, and Germany and I am very much interested in learning about past and current culture and food preparations there as well. Lately, I have been developing a taste for more Indian and Asian cuisines and have enjoyed experimenting in my kitchen!
I love to collect cookbooks from a variety of cuisines and have one that catered to the rationing needs of WWII. I like old movies, enjoy shopping for antiques, and love many things vintage.
FAVORITE FOODS: I enjoy cooking comfort foods, pot roast and brisket, curries, and love a roast chicken. We like to go out for Asian, Italian, Indian, and Seafood. My cookbooks are a compilation of a few of my own recipes as well as those of Zaar members' whose recipes I've tried and loved or are on my "can't wait to try" list.

MY RATING SYSTEM: If the dish is outstanding, I will rate it a 5. If I really like it and hope to make it again, I will rate it a 4. If the dish was just "ok" and I might make it again w/ adjustments, I'll rate it a 3. I will give it a 2 if it was fair and I probably won't make it again. I will give a recipe a 1 if I just didn't like it or it didn't work out. I will try to give a fair explanation of why I give a low rating. Please don't be offended as my low ratings will not be personal, but rather a true reflection of my experience w/ the recipe. Not everyone likes the same things and our tastes can be different, so please bear that in mind as well.
