Extravagant Caprese, Shrimp, and Avocado Sandwich

I wanted to turn my favorite caprese into an easy sandwich... and, to make it richer I added shrimp in cocktail sauce, and my husband loved it. Ever since, this has been making a regular appearance at weekend brunches.
This sandwich is stuffed with lots of ingredients, so put the fillings towards the center of the bread so that it won't spill out while eating. When you make the sandwich, the filling will naturally spread out a bit. For 2 servings. Recipe by Usagi no Cima

🥪Vegetarian Caprese sandwich 🥪 🥪Vegetarian Caprese sandwich 🥪
A common misconception is that all cheeses are vegetarian because they are essentially made of milk, but you’d be surprised to learn that many popular Italian cheeses like Parmesan and Mozzarella cheese are made with rennet, an enzyme obtaining from the stomach lining of slaughtered calves.In order to follow a true vegetarian diet, is important to refrain from eating these cheeses and opting for cheeses that have been coagulated with other acids like lemon or non-animal rennet like the mozzarella cheese used in this recipe. Search for mozzarella cheese labeled as “vegetarian” or with an indication of “non-animal rennet” being used.Notes:*Use ingredients that contain no animal-rennet.#CA2025 Veggie K -

Caprese-Style Tomato and Avocado Cold Pasta Caprese-Style Tomato and Avocado Cold Pasta
The basil that I was growing on my balcony was ready to harvest I got a hint from my favourite Caprese, and added avocado which goes well with it, then I made cold spaghetti.Please use ripe tomato and avocado. When the preparation for the sauce is done (Step 3), start cooking the pasta, then you will have enough time to chill the vegetables and can enjoy cold pasta. It's better if you can chill the plate as well ahead of time. Recipe by Usagi no Cima cookpad.japan -
