Instructions

Roast Potatoes
1

• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, half the Fry Seasoning (all for 4 servings), salt, and pepper. • Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

Prep
2

• Meanwhile, quarter lemon. Drain and rinse chickpeas; pat dry with paper towels. Trim and thinly slice scallions. Pick dill fronds from stems; finely chop fronds.

Make Pesto Mayo
3

• In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, pesto, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat a large dry pan over medium-high heat. Add bacon; cook, turning occasionally and adjusting heat if browning too quickly, until crispy, 6-10 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Wipe out pan.

Make Chickpea Salad
4

• Place chickpeas in a medium bowl and mash with a potato masher or fork until about half the chickpeas are smooth (leave some larger chickpeas pieces for texture-packed bites!). • Stir in scallions, half the pesto mayo, as much dill as you like, and lemon juice to taste. Season with salt and pepper.

Toast Bread & Toss Spinach
5

• Melt 1 TBSP butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add sourdough slices; toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes per side. (Work in batches if necessary, adding more butter for each batch.) • In a second medium bowl (large bowl for 4 servings), toss spinach with a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

Use pan used for bacon here.

Assemble & Serve
6

• Spread half the sourdough slices with remaining pesto mayo. • Fill with chickpea salad and as much spinach as you like. Close sandwiches and halve on a diagonal. • Divide sandwiches, potato wedges, and any remaining spinach between plates. Serve.

Add bacon to sandwiches along with chickpea salad.

Bacon is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.
