Crispy Fried Tofu Sandwiches

A fried chicken sandwich is one of those things I had written off as a meal I will never consume again. I used to love the crispy/zesty taste of a fast-food chicken sandwich (guilty as charged!!) but figured it would be impossible to make a vegan version, and even if I tried, it would be…

Grilled Prosciutto and Cheese with Tomato Soup

Sometime it’s nice to have a busy evening so you have no choice but to whip up a quick, classic childhood favorite, the grilled cheese. And it’s even nicer when you have vegan prosciutto to spice up the grilled cheese into a grilled prosciutto & cheese, complete with Dijon mustard and a side of canned tomato…

Caprese Open Faced Sandwich

Arguably one of the best things about summer is the taste of fresh, ripe tomatoes from the farmers market (especially Jersey tomatoes!). They’re delicious by themselves just with salt and pepper, but also divine with basil and mozzarella, also known as the caprese salad. We had the caprese combination on some rustic bread and some…

Pesto and Tomato Grilled Cheese

Grilled Cheese with Pesto and Tomato – Grilled cheese is already amazing but when you add pesto, tomato slices, and make it vegan, it’s even better! I highly recommend trying this jazzed up version of everyone’s childhood favorite. You could also make this with lots of different combinations, like salsa and avocado or fake ham…

Lentil Tahini Burgers

Veggie burgers are fascinating to me. In the freezer section of the grocery store, there are always many  different varieties and I have a lot of trouble differentiating them. Do I like Garden Vegetable flavor? Chipotle Black Bean? California? Or do I want the “Just Like Meat” versions of the veggie burger? As a vegetarian/vegan,…

Tofu Banh Mi Sandwiches

If you haven’t had banh mi before, it’s a delicious Vietnamese sandwich on a baguette with lots of pickled vegetables, cilantro, and typically, pork. This vegan version uses grilled tofu as the main filling and vegan mayonnaise in a spicy chili mayo sauce.  It’s so simple to make these glorious (and super packed!) sandwiches. You…

Chickpea Avocado Salad

A great vegan lunch option is this chickpea avocado salad. It’s delicious on a sandwich or on top of mixed greens. It’s got lots of healthy fats that will keep you feeling fuller longer. So for anyone like me that gets hungry every hour at work, it’s a good packed lunch because it leaves me…

Pulled Pork Sandwiches

One of my favorite comfort foods ever in my pre-vegan days was a good pulled pork sandwich. There was nothing like the smokey flavor and the fall apart texture of this delicious festival food. When I became a vegan two years ago, I was on the hunt for something that could satiate my barbecue cravings….
