  • I've worked at a handful of restaurants throughout my life and have picked up a few things along the way. These sandwiches are vegan versions of some of my favourites.
    The first is a Baked Tofu, brie and fig jam sandwich with spiced apples and spinach on a toasted ciabatta bun.
    The second a classic mediterranean roasted veggie sandwich where I show you how to make a quick oil-free hummus to go on it and a tasty avocado spread to tie it all together.
    The third is a plant based version of the classic Sloppy Joe! Instead of ground meat I use lentils. It's a bit sweet, smoky and definitely sloppy.

    Cut extra firm tofu into 3/4 inch slices like this. S
    core the tofu to give the seasoning somewhere to go and help it crisp up.
    Add the tofu slices to the marinade and give it a quick press, flip and repeat.
    Bake on baking tray for 35-40 minutes in a preheated oven at 400 f.

      So a hint that will make Sloppy Joe's stupid good like next level add pickles and butter the bun and for an extra indulgent treat add chips to the sandwich and prepare for your food coma.

    That’s exactly how I make hummus as well sometimes adding fresh parsley or herbs. All great classic sandwiches. I made a sloppy Joe recently with ground up tempeh which works well too.
    ‘Back in the day’ (lol, like I’m so old!) that Mediterranean Roasted Veggie sandwich was nearly the only vegan (though called vegetarian back then) available at many restaurants. Thankfully, things have changed!
    I also have a ‘first career’ in restaurants and catering. Your meals are so similar to how we like to eat. Always enjoy and share your recipe videos! 🙏 ~ Tracy

      I couldn’t wait till I had all the ingredients so I did the tofu block as instructed (amazing!!!), had the crisp apple so used that…..subbed vegan feta for the Brie, subbed homemade Strawberry/raspberry/peach chunky jam for the fig (can’t wait to try with the fig!) scattered a couple thin slices or roasted red pepper for color, and used dark rye (without caraway) for the bread. One final drizzle with balsamic glaze and it was ready for our supper…
      It was sooooooo tasty! Can’t wait to see how taking it up a notch with the right ingredients will be! Thanks soooo much for this sandwich!
