Moroccan Carrot and Goat Cheese Sandwiches with Green Olive TapenadeRichard Gerhard Jung

The inspiration for this recipe came from a tea sandwich one of our food editors discovered at Alice's Tea Cup, in Manhattan. It's surprisingly substantial — a bit like an overstuffed deli sandwich, but not nearly as heavy.

Cooks' notes:

·Carrots can marinate up to 2 days.
· Tapenade can be made 1 week ahead and chilled, covered.
