Closely related to the Breakfast Conundrum aka The Scramble Shamble...
Since starting to eat vegan I've been somewhat struggling with making sandwiches. Back in my omni days it usually was bread, cheese, salad, maybe a cucumber - voila. The cheese was the main flavour, everything else was just to make it look more pretty.
Now, well, there is no cheese. I haven't found a tasty vegan cheese yet and soy turkey/ham/chicken feels a bit like not making enough effort. I came up with the combination of Swedish rye bread, mayo/hummus, mixed leaves, sundried tomatos & cucumber today, which was very tasty. I've also had an amazingly tasty bagel while travelling last summer, which consisted of hummus, rocket, alfalfa sprouts, avocado and red onions. Other good sandwich toppers are mayo, leaves & fried tofu and leaves (there's a pattern here), red onions & guacamole.
In general I've got the feeling that vegan sandwiches just need more ingredients than omni sandwiches to be tasty & interesting. Or maybe I'm just going a tiny bit OCD here...
