Course Main Course
Servings 6 sandwiches

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can green jackfruit I like to get the kind that is pre-sliced into wedges
  • 1 can chickpeas
  • 1 bell pepper sliced into strips
  • 1 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 vegan cream cheese package
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon basil
  • ½ teaspoon parsley

Instructions
 

  • Place jackfruit & chickpeas in a baking dish.
  • Smash with a potato masher or a fork. So jackfruit separates into a shredded texture.
  • Add in sliced bell peppers.
  • Drizzle buffalo sauce over everything.
  • Add in dry spices.
  • Mix well.
  • Make space in the center of mixture and place cream cheese in the middle.
  • Push buffalo mixture back around the cream cheese so the cheese is surrounded.
  • Bake in at 375 degrees F° for 20 - 25 min.
  • Take out of oven and mix everything together.
  • Put filling in toasted and buttered buns with crunchy lettuce and fresh tomato slices.

Notes

  • I like to serve this on toasted buns - Butter the inside of your bun and toast it in a hot pan for delicious, crispy, buttery buns! 
  • Sprinkle fresh chopped chives on top for some extra flavor and color.
  • This filing is also killer in burritos or tacos. Let me know how you end up using it!
