Instructions

Preheat oven to broil on high and position rack under the broiler.

Wash and dry the fresh produce.

Peel, halve, and thinly slice onions. Transfer to a large baking sheet pan.

Halve jalapeño peppers lengthwise; seed and remove ribs with a spoon. Add to the baking sheet with the onions. (Be careful, with jalapeños, do not touch your eyes and ensure you wash your hands after handling or wear gloves while preparing.)

Drizzle onions and jalapeños with oil and season with salt; toss to coat. Place in the oven and broil, tossing once, until veggies are soft and blistered, 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside. (Keep the broiler on.)

Meanwhile, juice limes into a large bowl. Add yogurt, mayo, maple syrup, salt, and pepper; whisk to combine the dressing.

Peel and grate carrots. Add carrots and broccoli slaw to the bowl with the dressing.

Shave cilantro leaves off the stems; discard stems and mince the leaves. Add to the bowl and toss to combine the slaw; set aside.

Drain and rinse beans; transfer to another large bowl.

Add spices to the bowl with the beans. Crush with a fork or potato masher until almost smooth, with some texture remaining; set aside.

Grate cheese.

Remove broiled veggies to a plate.

Split rolls in half. Place the top half of each roll, cut-side up, on the baking sheet used for the veggies. Place in the oven and broil until lightly toasted, 1-2 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.

Meanwhile, place the bottom half of each roll, cut-side up, on an additional baking sheet pan. Spread bean mash over the bottom halves and top with cheese. Place in the oven and broil until buns are lightly toasted, and cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes. Remove from oven.

Thinly slice tomatoes. Halve and pit the avocados; slice thinly while still in skin, then scoop out.

Place the bottom of each roll on a plate. Top with tomato, avocado, onions, and jalapeños; close sandwich with top half of the roll. Serve with broccoli slaw on the side and enjoy!
