If you've never heard of Joe & The Juice, it is a coffee shop chain that serves coffee, juice, and delicious sandwiches. I tend to get it when I'm in NYC or Miami and it never misses. They have a "Spicy Tuna" sandwich that makes your taste buds dance. The sandwich is made of a thin crust bread, tuna, vegan pesto, tomato, tabasco, and jalapeños. So, since I can't always be in NYC or Miami I decided to make it myself. I used sourdough since the bread they use is unique to their chain, tuna, jalapeños, mayo, radish, avocado, tomato, and tabasco. It was absolutely delicious and definitely an easy sandwich you can whip up this spring and summer. It's so refreshing and you have a great combo of nutrient dense foods in one meal. So, if you're a fan of spicy tuna like I am, let's get to the recipe!
