METHODS
Bearings
Press or scoop the avocado from the skin into a little bowl. Squash with a fork and blend in the vinegar, oregano, yogurt and garlic to make a smooth spread. Daintily spread the avocado blend onto one side of each cut of bread.
Top 4 of the cuts of bread with the arugula, tofu, onions and sun-dried tomatoes. Place 4 of the rest of the cuts to finish everything, avocado-side down. Top with the cucumbers, pepperoncini, provolone and cooked peppers. Place the rest of the bread cuts to finish everything, avocado-side down.
Embed bamboo picks into each sandwich, cut down the middle on the inclining with a bread blade and serve.
