• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1.5 teaspoons Jerk seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 4 pieces Ciabatta rolls
• 1 cup (shredded) Purple cabbage
• 1 medium-sized (shredded) Carrot
• 1.5 tablespoons Lime juice
• 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 1 cup Baby spinach
• 1 medium-sized (sliced) Avocado

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Slice the zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion into thin strips. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and sprinkle with jerk seasoning and salt. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Roast the vegetables in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized. Flip halfway through for even cooking.

Step 5

While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the slaw. In a small bowl, combine shredded purple cabbage, shredded carrot, and lime juice. Toss until well-coated and set aside.

Step 6

In another small bowl, make the aioli by whisking together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder. Set it aside.

Step 7

Toast the ciabatta rolls lightly in the oven or on a grill pan until warm and crispy.

Step 8

To assemble the sandwich, spread a generous layer of aioli on the bottom half of each ciabatta roll.

Step 9

Add a layer of roasted jerk vegetables, followed by a handful of baby spinach and a few slices of avocado.

Step 10

Top with the tangy slaw, then place the top half of the bread on to complete the sandwich.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy The Floozified Jerked Vegetable Sandwich bursting with bold flavors!
