I love my Gorilla

A friend on a message board posted a link to a site that talked about a Gorilla Sandwich. My friend, Elaine, eats only raw foods and the thought of this sandwich really appealed to her.

So I tried making one after reading about it on the site.

You get a cucumber, I got a half just to try it out, and then hollow it out. It was a Spanish cucumber which seemed to have a thicker skin. After the innards are out and all the liquid, you can start layering the good stuff in.

I got an avocado and shmushed it up with some spring onions (scallions) I then put a layer of it in the cucumber. Then a layer of small diced tomatoes and then some sliced black olives and then another layer of the avocado. That's all I had room for.

Discussing it with friends we thought that tuna or chicken salad could be added if you eat meat. Any type of food that you like would do. Fresh fruit would be good too.

It would be a perfect cool snack in the summer.
