Trident Subs for 6

Makes: 6 sandwiches

Prep Time: 30 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour +

Ingredients:
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, diced
  • 1-2 onions, chopped
  • 5 tbsp olive oil (optional)
  • 2 tsp thyme
  • ¾ tsp cayenne
  • 1 tsp sea salt (optional)
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 or 2 16 oz cans canned tomatos
  • OR
  • 2-4 fresh tomatoes, chopped
  • 1-2 squash (zucchini, summer, winter, etc...)
  • 3-5 any root vegetable (carrot, potato, daikon...)
  • 1-2 bunches dark leafy vegetables (collards, kale, spinach...)
  • ½ cabbage or eggplant
  • 6 sandwhich rolls
Equipment:
  • 10 L pot (or larger)
Sauté the chopped garlic and onions in a dry pan or in oil over medium high heat in a 4 liter pot until the onions become clear. Add spices, then all the chopped vegetables and either fresh or canned tomatoes. (If you do not have any tomatoes, and a little water to start the vegetables cooking.) Stir often to prevent sticking. Once the liquid in the bottom starts to boil lower the heat to medium low. Cook until the vegetables are soft and the sauce is thick like stew, usually about 1 hour, but simmering longer enhances the taste. Adjust seasonings, especially salt, pepper, and cayenne. Serve on a sandwich roll, or over bread or brown rice on a plate. We call this a trident sub because it is spicy "hot"!
