Mango and Radish, Avocado & Falafel Sandwich

I’m not the biggest sandwich person, but when I do go that route.. it’s generally vegetarian and full of veggies. Sandwiches also a great way to repurpose leftovers, which is how this “recipe” came about. This mango radish slaw has made an almost permanent spot in my fridge because I love it so much. Then I had some leftover baguette from my French Onion soup and I just thought of a Bahn mi style sandwich. While the final product is nothing like the traditional, it inspired my combo of the baguette and pickled crunchy veggies. Lots of creamy avocado was a must, and the falafel (which I happened to have leftover) makes this a more substantial vegetarian lunch.
