While we were on vacation this summer my sister brought this really fun card game called “SUPERFIGHT” the idea was to create a character to fight someone elses. The powers ranged from telekenisis to really having to pee. It was hysterical.

I kept getting the power, “everything you touch turns to hummus.”

My children got quite a kick out of that, because well, I do enjoy some hummus. These sandwiches had already made several apperances on our weekly menu, and were quickly becoming a favorite, so that super power was perfect.

Except if everything I touched turned to hummus it would be really inconvinient… I would be having a really hard time typing this post…

I digress.

This sandwich is awesome… hearty, filling, crispy on the outside, cheesy and creamy on the inside. Deliciousness.

Here’s what you’ll need-

(This makes 4 sandwiches- I usually double it)

1- Can White Cannellini beans- drained

1-Tbsp. Olive Oil

1-tsp Minced Garlic

1/4- tsp Salt

1/2 Cup- Black Olives Sliced

8- Slices Cheddar Cheese

Fresh Spinach

8- Slices Whole Grain Bread

Olive Oil for Cooking

 

First thing is to get your hummus made (since we don’t have super powers). In a food processor blend together your beans, olive oil, garlic and salt. Blend it until smooth.

Now layer your hummus, olives and cheese between two slices of bread. Heat a little olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Alternately you can brush your bread with olive oil before placing the sandwiches in the pan.

Now you’re just going to grill these up like your typical grilled cheese. Let them turn a nice golden brown on one side then flip them over, adding a little more olive oil if you need to.

Once they’re nice and crispy on the outside remove them from the pan. Now you want to open them up and add a nice handful of spinach.

Now they’re ready to eat! Serve them up for lunch or dinner and enjoy!

 

If you’d like to play a game of Superfight while eating them you can pick it up on Amazon… you may laugh hummus out your nose though!!

    Pinned! Of course. I love that superpower. It’s better than the pee one – ha! My daughter is more of a picky eater whereas my son would eat beans for three meals a day. I love the idea of this sandwich because both kids love grilled cheese and both kids love hummus.
    There’s nothing not to love, basically.
