Bell Pepper Slices with Avocado, Mushroom & Tahini Drizzle

---

Bell pepper slices with avocado, mushroom, a creamy tahini drizzle, pumpkin seeds & arugula.

In my opinion, these bell pepper slices make the perfect lunch. I like to eat them as a healthy “sandwich”. Sure, it’s not really like eating a piece of bread… but it’s a healthy alternative and quite honestly, so much better! My favorite part of making a sandwich is being able to play around with the toppings, and so this is an amazing way to do that on a slice of something that won’t leave you feeling bloated and gross. It also has a delicious crunch! Here I am sharing my favorite way to eat bell pepper slices, but there are so many ways that you can play around with different toppings and cflavor combinations! Don’t be afraid to get creative and try new ideas!

This recipe is grain-free, gluten-free, plant based and is appropriate for raw vegan, Paleo and Banting diets.
