Beetroot Carrot Sandwich is a simple, colorful, delicious take on healthy food loaded with freshly grated beetroot, carrot, and cream cheese spread. Eat them grilled or can serve them as a cold sandwich. People of all age groups relish this lip-smacking breakfast or snack recipe.
This easy-to-make sandwich recipe can be prepared in under 20 minutes, and there is no need to cook the beetroot or carrot. It is very easy to assemble. You can prepare beet-carrot-cream cheese spread 1 day prior, refrigerate and use it the next day for making the sandwich.
I have used cream cheese spread in this recipe. But you can also use hung curd or mayonnaise to taste equally good. Kids will love this sandwich because it is not spicy, so it's a perfect school tiffin box recipe. I love this sandwich, I am sure you and your family will love this too!
This recipe can be prepared with any bread. I have used multigrain sandwich bread. Sourdough bread works best for packing kids lunchboxes. If you think the sandwich can turn soggy on keeping for a long time, make sure to squeeze extra juice from beetroot before preparing the sandwich spread.

Ingredients

- Vegetables: Carrot, beetroot, peeled and shredded.
- Cream cheese: I have used plain cream cheese. You can also use mayonnaise or Greek yogurt (or hung curd) instead.

How to Make Beetroot Carrot Sandwich
Peel and grate the beetroot and carrot. Keep aside.
Take grated beetroot, carrot, cream cheese spread, black pepper powder, Italian seasoning, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix well and keep aside. Note: Add more cream cheese if you desire.
Take bread slices, apply some butter first, and then spread beetroot carrot cheese mixture generously on one slice of the bread. Cover and press with another bread slice over it.
Heat Tawa or sandwich maker, and add butter. Now place the prepared sandwich and spread butter on top.
Grill or toast bread on both sides till golden brown and crisp.
Serve beetroot and cream cheese sandwich hot with tomato ketchup.
Tips & Variations
- Use brown or multigrain bread for healthier choices.
- You can also add colored bell pepper, shredded cabbage, or lettuce.
- If you don't have cream cheese, you can replace it with hung curd or mayonnaise.
- Grilling or toasting a sandwich is optional, so to make a cold curd sandwich, follow the same steps and skip grill or toasting the sandwich.
- Toast the bread on tawa or use a sandwich maker or grill to roast golden and crisp.
- You can use oil instead of butter if you wish to.
