Burrito Sandwich

I just made an amazing sandwich for lunch with some leftover refried beans... I didn't take a picture because I had no idea how good it was going to taste.  Next time I make it, I will be sure to post one here for you.  Here is the basic recipe:

3-4 tbsp refried beans, warmed
1/4 of a red bell pepper, sliced 1/4' thick
2 slices whole wheat (make sure its vegan) or ezekiel bread
large handful of mixed lettuces (I used Green leaf, Frisee, and Radicchio)

1) In a small skillet, boil the red bell pepper in water until softened (3-5min). Drain.
2) Spread warmed refried beans evenly on each side of the bread.
3) Top one side with red peppers, and the other side with the lettuce. Place lettuce slice on top of the red pepper slice.

* I ate my sandwich just like this...but if you want a more delicious, greasy sandwich, I suggest spreading Earth Balance on both sides of the sandwich, and grilling like a grilled cheese sandwich. I was tempted, but thought I didn't need the extra calories!

This sandwich is soo easy and so yummy! Even my meat-eating little brother enjoyed it (he named it the Burrito Sandwich).

Again, I will post a photo asap.
