Description

A delicious new twist on vegan carrot “hot dogs.” The smoky and garlicy carrots are topped with Vietnamese Bánh Mì toppings for a tangy and spicy addition.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 Carrots (or more if desired – Peeled)

Marinade:

Avocado Crema:

  • 1 Avocado (Skin and Pit Removed)
  • 1 Lime (Juiced)
  • 2 Tbsp Dairy-Free Yogurt
  • ¼ tsp Red Pepper
  • ¼ tsp Garlic Powder
  • A Pinch of Salt

Toppings:

  • Cilantro (Chopped for Garnish)
  • Jalapeño (Optional Garnish)
  • Quick Pickled Veggies
  • Buns (Gluten-free, if needed)

Instructions

  1. Put a large pot on to boil. Peel and shape the carrots.
  2. Once the water is boiling, place the carrots carefully into the water and cook for 5-6 minutes. They should be tender yet keep their shape.
  3. While the carrots are boiling, mix the marinade together in a large bowl. When the carrots are done cooking, place them into the marinade and allow to marinate for 8 hours or overnight.
  4. At least 3 hours before serving prepare the quick pickled veggies. Refrigerate until needed.They can also be made a day in advance while prepping the carrots.
  5. Day of: Prepare the avocado crema. Place all of the ingredients for the crema into a bowl and use a fork or an immersion blender to purée it into a smooth cream.
  6. Remove the carrots from the marinade and grill them or cook them on the stove top in a frying pan or grill pan, until nicely browned or grill marks are visible.
  7. Place the “hot dogs” into the buns and top with drained pickled veggies, avocado crema, cilantro, and fresh jalapeño, if using. Enjoy!
  8. Refrigerate leftover ingredients separately for up to 5 days.
