Moong Dal Egg Sandwiches – We’ve all tried tofu egg sandwiches and chickpea egg salad sandwiches  and then there is that viral vegan tiktok egg sandwich that was inspired from Korean egg sandwiches.

Well, I’d say it’s time to use one of my favorite Indian staple ingredients to create our favorite lunch sandwich – lentils. Moong Dal lentils aka skinned split mung beans or petite yellow lentils, to be precise. Soaked moong dal when blended makes a smooth batter that makes great thin omelets!

This vegan moong dal sandwich is my vegan spin on the viral titktok egg sandwich recipe. We blend some moong dal with some secret ingredients into an eggy batter, fry it up in the pan, add buttered toast and a gorgeous spinach filling as well as some vegan cheese. Fry, fold over, flip and serve.

 What is Moong Dal:

Just in case you wondered: Moong Dal Lentils are a staple in Indian cuisine. They are commonly served as dal like moong tadka using the Indian tempering method, or in soups or curries along with roti, paratha or steamed rice. They are also used to make thin pancakes like Chilla or the batter used to make fritters.

Moong dal protein is one of the main ingredients in just egg! But moong dal is cheap, unprocessed food and makes a ton of batter. Trust me, once you take a bit of that cheesy eggy sandwich goodness, it will all make perfect sense.

Summer Spinach Salad with Chickpea Olive Crumble

A fully loaded, flavor packed, protein rich summer spinach salad with an umami-packed crisp chickpea hemp seed olive crumble, nutrient dense greens, and creamy, vibrant tahini lemon dressing. A perfect hot weather dinner. (23g protein and 15g fiber per serving, (gluten-free, soy-free, nut-free, high protein)

This is a fantastically hearty summer spinach salad. It has so many textures and flavors, and it has 80 grams of protein for the entire salad. That’s 20 grams of protein per serving. For a salad!

There is protein from the chickpeas, from the hemp seeds, and from the nutritional yeast in the chickpea crumble. There’s also protein from the tahini in the dressing, the non-dairy yogurt (depending on the brand), as well as a little protein from the greens that you use in the salad. You can amp up the protein even more by sprinkling it with some hemp seeds before serving or adding some of my tofu bacon bits, or other high protein toppings.

The salad has this creamy texture from the dressing, the crunch from the fresh veggies, and crispiness from the chickpea crumbles, which we bake until they’re crispy-crunchy. The umami comes from the olives and the sun-dried tomato, and the refreshing, fresh flavor comes from lemon zest, the cucumbers, and any other crunchy veggies and greens. 

It’s just a fabulous combination of flavors and textures. The combination of tahini and yogurt helps mellow tahini’s strong flavor and makes for a rich, creamy dressing.
