Vegetarian sandwich ideas

[dollybird]

I'm not vegetarian, but am trying to cut down on meat, so would like some ideas for veggie sandwiches as I find it easier to just make a big pile of sandwiches for everyone each day. I don't want to end up eating cheese sandwiches every day! I have recently discovered some nice veggie pate which is nice with tomatoes, but any other suggestions? TIA

I had. Coronation chickpeas at a recent work buffet thing. They would have made an amazing sandwich filling

Sound delicious Aquamarine, do you have links to recipes?

Yummy! I do a wrap with beetroot, feta and avocado w/hummus- toasted if poss. Unbelievable.

Posh tomato and cheese- chopped cherry Toms, garlic clove, salt and pepper and a glug of oil on bread with cheese under grill and drizzle with pesto. Great thread!

peanut butter, lime pickle and tomatoes
marmite and lettuce is very nice but not very sustaining for lunch

Brie and still-warm cooked mushrooms on thick slices of buttered rye sourdough. Food of the gods.

I'm not a huge lover of meat substitutes but I had an absolutely banging sandwich earlier I feel it's my duty to share. Caramelised onion hummus and Quorn chicken slices. It sounds simple but it was amazing.

Vegetarian pate: cauliflower plus mayonnaise

Mushroom paste with cream cheese

Romanian aubergine pare/ bakes aubergine, puréed with garlic and cream cheese or mayonnaise.

Mackerel pate (mashed, puréed with cream cheese or mayonnaise or creme fraiche or butter, plus lemon juice. Fat reduced creme fraiche is good.

Season all of above with salt and pepper. Any herbs if desired.

Home made hummus with tahini, olive oil and garlic/lemon (or variation with other nut or seed butter to replace the tahini). Less oil than shops. For low fat dieters ,use yogurt in place of oil .

I make Portobello mushroom burgers and eggplant burgers. So delicious.

Philadelphia cheese and watercress

Hummus carrot and sweet chilli sauce on multi seed bread. Yum.

[dollybird]

Joinourclub we used Moroccan spiced houmous. Also tried it with sweet chilli flavour which wasn't as nice.

[Joinourclub]

I add a bit of harissa to my humous and carrot sandwiches.

Cheese, apple and celery with either mayo or yoghurt as the dressing. I like it all chunky but grated works too if you prefer a soft consistency. Probably better in rolls than sandwiches.

Apricot stilton with spinach and sliced pear. Mmmm mmmm.

Peanut butter and dates.

Cold beanburgers are a bit of a hit too, with a nice spicy chutney and some crisp lettuce.

Hummus + any veg
Once made a sandwich with leftover home made veg pakora from the night before with a bit of butter and some raw onion - amazing.

[dollybird]

can I just say, houmous with grated carrot = best sandwich EVER! Thanks to those who suggested it.

[dollybird]

Thanks everyone. Lots of yummy ideas here 😋

Aubergine 'bacon' makes a lovely BLT!

[VenezuelanBeaverCheese]

I used to love the mushroom pate from Holland & Barrett. Not sure if they do it still. It comes in a big sausage.

I love pitta hot or cold spread with hummous grated carrot and celery for crunch

[DunnoWhy]

My dd loves grated carrots and cream cheese mixed together. Afaik it's her own creation.

Also sliced cucumber with cream cheese and sprinkle either some sesame seeds or poppy seeds to give a unique texture.

[Redpriestandmozart]

Mashed tin of chickpeas, red onion finely chopped, finely chopped coriander and a tbsp of curry paste .. delicious

[MonaChopsis]

Cream cheese, grated carrot and dry roasted pine nuts is my best ever sandwich

[schnubbins]

Cream cheese and chopped chives
Rucola , mozzarella and tomatoes with a small scraping of pesto on bread .Fresh Basil if you have it.

[DunnoWhy]

Courgette frittata.

Potato frittata.

Cold pasta salad. I know you asked for sandwich filling but..

French bread, opened lengthwise, add mozzarella cheese and sliced tomatoes and mint leaves or parsley. Very simple yet very tasty.

Grilled or fried courgette with dollop of yoghurt or sour cream or mayonnaise on top. Eaten cold with or without bread.

Long sliced carrots first dipped into beaten egg mix followed by dipping into breadcrumbs and fried. Its very tasty when it's cold even the next day. You can add yoghurt or sliced mozzarella cheese with it inside sandwich bread.
