What is the most delicious vegetarian sandwich?
Kelly M asked:
We’re opening a restaurant and want to have at least one completely vegetarian item on our menu. I know vegetarians have a hard time dining out because most places offer very little, if any, vegetarian sandwiches. We want something delicious and flavorful!

This is my favorite…all vegan yet it tastes eerily close to tuna salad:
Chickpea Salad Sandwich
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
2 slices whole wheat bread
chickpeas
mustard
soy mayonnaise
pickle relish
lettuce, optional- i like the spring greens mix
tomato slices, optional
fresh ground pepper
Directions:
When I became vegetarian, i missed the weirdest things, and one of those things was chicken and tuna salad sandwiches. This is a good substitute, because with the mustard, mayonnaise, and relish, you can hardly tell what the main ingredient is anyway. Non-vegetarians will like it too!
Put the chickpeas, mustard, mayonnaise, and pickle relish (or whatever you would typically make meat salads with) in a bowl and mash with a fork into a lumpy consistency (should have texture, not smooth like hummous). Put cheese on one slice of vegan bread spoon chickpea salad over it. Top with lettuce and tomato slices and add pepper to taste. Put other slice of bread on top to close sandwich and slice in half from corner to corner. Yummy… enjoy!

I have to agree on that Chickpea Salad Sandwich. It is phenomenal! I also like a simple Crunchy Vegetable Wrap:
4 Tbsp. Tofutti cream cheese, your favorite flavor (or any nondairy cream cheese)
4 10-inch flour tortillas
1 cup shredded spinach
1/4 cup alfalfa sprouts
1/2 cup shredded red cabbage
1/2 cup sliced avocado
1/4 cup chopped tomatoes
1/2 cup diced cucumbers
2 Tbsp. finely diced red onion
Salt and pepper, to taste
• Spread one tablespoon of cream cheese over each tortilla. Sprinkle an even amount of the remaining ingredients on each wrap; roll up.
It’s yummy

You should try a BLT made with fake bacon.

Here’s a few of my favorites:
-Falafel with baby spinach, tomato, cucumbers, feta cheese and tzatziki sauce in a pita pocket
-Spinach, roasted red peppers, hummus, tomatoes, sprouts, cucumbers, and sharp cheddar cheese, with some olive oil and vinegar on whole grain bread
-peanut butter and jelly (simple, but so good) you can jazz this up with natural peanut butter and small batch gourmet jams, maybe throw some banana slices and/or honey on there, too

Vegan fried fish sandwich.
1/2 block of firm or extra firm tofu, cut into 1 cm slices,
2 tsp minced ginger
1 tsp ginger powder
1/2 tsp mustard powder*
1 tsp onion powder*
1 tsp miso paste (I used mellow white miso)
1 tsp lime or lemon juice
1 tsp of brown sugar
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced* or 1 tsp garlic powder*
2 tsp flaked seaweed* (1 tsp for marinade, 1 tsp for flour)
olive oil
flour
soymilk, plain
panko breadcrumbs
First, steam the tofu slices for about 7-10 minutes.
While tofu is steaming, prepare marinade. Add 1 tsp. flaked seaweed to the marinade. Mix to form a paste then add olive oil until fairly liquid. Taste and adjust seasonings so it’s not too salty or tangy.
Remove tofu from steamer, coat in marinade and leave for a few hours.
Heat a shallow amount of olive oil on medium heat in a saucepan while you do the following:
Get three bowls ready. Fill one with flour. Add the other tsp. of the seaweed to the flour and mix to combine. Fill the next bowl with about 1/2 cup soymilk. Fill the last bowl with panko. Dip tofu slices into flour, then soymilk, then finally in crumbs, making sure each side is completely covered.
Gently pan fry tofu until browned on both sides. Serve hot.
Note: To make flaked seaweed, I took a nori sheet and pulverized it in the blender!
Easy Tartar Sauce
1/2 cup Vegenaise or any brand vegan mayo
2 tsp sweet relish
1 tsp dijon mustard
2 squirts of lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste
Combine all ingredients and chill for a while.

This is my all time favorite. It is very easy to prepare and even my meat eating boyfriend asks for me to make this one over and over, not to mention he doesn’t like vegetables
.
But all of the texture and garlic and flavor of this makes it really yummy, I put this one on a hamburger bun or potato bread. And personally I took out the jalapenos and onions, I use onion powder just bc I don’t like raw onions or spicy foods.

I’m not too fond of sandwhiches myself, since I am a vegetarian and all. But, something that is good and I do like is meatless deli. Taste like meat and it is all natural but no meat its awesome

I’m a vegetarian, and I’m always disappointed at veggie burgers at restaurants that don’t specialize in vegetarian food. It’s like they buy pre-made patties somewhere. The burger is something everyone can relate to, and a good veggie burger can, more than any vegetarian food, persuade meat lovers to give veggies – and maybe someday vegetarianism – a try, and can put a big smile on most vegetarians’ faces. So, in my opinion, find a good recipe on the Internet, or from a cookbook, or from somewhere, for veggie burgers. Find several recipes perhaps, try them out, then choose one. Serve them with or without cheese; many vegetarians eat dairy. Serve your veggie burger with the same flare as you do your meat burger. Sorry, I don’t have recipe. I’ve lived in Asia for the last 10 years and eat/cook local food. Good luck with the restaurant!

Wonderful brand I found at Jewel-Osco (it’s a massive chain gercroy store in the Midwest.) It’s called Amy’s, they make pizzas, burgers, pot pies, hot pockets style sandwiches, burritos, and more and most are also vegan. The website is here:I’ve even seen it at WalMart before, too.Also, Lightlife, which makes frozen meals, frozen meat substitutes of EVERY kind, etc.South Beach and Healthy Choice also have some pastas that are vegetarian.Also, it’s not frozen, but try Thai Kitchen soups. They’re easy to find and DELICIOUS. Also are either vegetarian or vegan.

Yesss! Perfect! The diet stuff is useful but what ellary got me from ooh, maybe to hell yeah I’m buying this! is the section on the nuts and bolts of how to train what the different workouts mean, suggested training plans, warming up and down all the stuff that everyone else magically seems to know but no-one ever talks about! I just want to bumble along on my own and slowly increase my fitness and how far I can run, rather than committing to joining a club or finding some training buddies, but I had no idea where to go from my current 5K-ish position except keep running further and further which is vague and not very inspiring so it never happened.So thank you for covering not only the diet and mental side of things but also the absolute nitty gritty basics! I may finally learn to run
