The Big Sandwich (for days you’re tired… but still hungry for life)
Okay.
This one is different.
This is not your low effort, minimal appetite breakfast.
This is for days when:
you’re tired
you have a LOT to do
but you still love food
Call it breakfast.
Call it brunch.
I call it:
The Big Sandwich
What you need
Not much.
Just intention.
Carbs Max
Start with bread.
baguette (excuse my French)
sourdough
or a good gluten-free crunchy option
You need something that holds everything together.
Fiber+
Salad and tomato are safe.
But not enough.
Let’s upgrade—with vegetables that actually work:
roasted bell peppers
zucchini
eggplant
mushrooms
spinach
If you already made the Great Omelet or a tchaktchouka base:
Use it.
Leftovers are strategy.
Protein Crazy
Let’s be honest.
Chicken wins here.
Why?
easy
accessible
already cooked
Buy a rotisserie chicken.
eat it for one meal
keep some for this
keep the bones for broth later
Cheap. Efficient. Done.
Vegan option: tofu, chickpeas, or lentil spread.
Fat Lover
This is where it becomes serious.
Pick your mood:
olive oil (1–2 tbsp)
avocado (half, mashed with spices)
crushed nuts (cashews, almonds)
This is what takes it from food to something actually satisfying.
Assembly
bread
vegetables
protein
fat
Close it.
Press it if you want.
Eat.
No aesthetic pressure.
No perfect layering.
One important thing
This is a real meal.
So take your time.
Eat slowly.
