Salmon Avocado and Tahini Open Sandwiches

This past month or so, I have had the pleasure of trialling some delicious raw & organic artisan crackers (Crackits) made by local London super food brand, Inspiral. I met a member of the Inspiral team at a blogger event a few months ago, and since being in touch with them have been really impressed by the products I have sampled, and also by their kind attitude, which always makes a product even more delicious!

I thought I’d share with you one of my favourite lunches that I’ve been whipping up over the last few weeks, using Inspiral’s Crackits range as a base. These open sandwiches are so incredibly flavoursome; the combination of salmon, creamy tahini and avocado, plus the slight zing of lemon and spring onion is just PERFECT. The sandwich filling is made with canned salmon too, so it’s very economical, and as an added bonus the filling keeps in the fridge for a few days so you don’t need to use it up all at once. You could keep this filling in a little container in the fridge, quickly grab some crackers and sliced tomato and you have an instantaneous healthy meal.

If you’re going to use some Crackits as your base, I’d recommend either the herb flavour or the slightly more punchy garlic flavour, both work really well with this sandwich filling! A generous sprinkle of cracked black pepper or some chilli flakes over the top of it all is also really good. Enjoy!

Notes

*I like to buy the Fish 4 Ever brand of salmon which prides itself on selling sustainably caught canned fish.
