Low Calorie Kimchi Toastie

Preparing the kimchi mixture In a small bowl, combine the kimchi, low-fat mayonnaise, Korean chili paste, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well until fully incorporated.

Assembling the toastie Lay one slice of whole grain bread on a clean surface. Spread half of the kimchi mixture evenly over the bread. Layer the cooked chicken breast, shredded carrots, and sliced cucumber on top. Spread the remaining kimchi mixture on the other slice of bread and place it on top, kimchi side down, to complete the toastie.

Grilling the toastie Heat a non-stick skillet or panini press over medium heat. Place the assembled toastie in the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the bread is toasted and crunchy, and the inside is warm. If using a skillet, press down with a spatula for a more compact and crispy texture.

Making the side salad While the toastie is cooking, prepare the side salad. In a medium bowl, combine the mixed greens, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss well to combine.

5.Serve the hot toastie immediately with the fresh side salad on the side. Enjoy your low-calorie kimchi toastie as a wholesome meal.
