Vegetarian Sandwich Ideas

[summercupcake]

Apologies if this has been done before.

Does anyone have any vegetarian sandwich / wrap ideas (for a reluctant cheese eater...they do eat cheese but would prefer a break from it occasionally)?

Quorn bacon( cooked until it is crispy), lettuce and tomatoes is one of my faves.

I once had a very nice sarnie involving avocado and cashew nuts. Unfortunately, I can't remember what else it contained. Maybe mint?

That was immediate thought too @3GreenPullups! Must be another Aussie.
I had a proper tuck shop salad sandwich, complete with beetroot, last week and it was amazing and took me straight back to high school. It’s back in the repertoire!

Cream cheese and red pepper, with or without tomato. Yum!

Onion bhaji with mango chutney and cucumber

Hummus, grated carrot

Brie and cranberry with walnuts & finely chopped celery

Roasted peppers, pesto and pine nuts

Beetroot and goats cheese is yum.

Cheddar and lime pickle

Nigellas liptauer with diced peppers / celery

Oh it's difficult to avoid the cheese!

Where are you getting veggie pesto? Parmesan ain't veggie?

Hummus, carrot & coriander

Lettuce, tomato, cucumber, spring onion with salad cream

I think a lot of jarred pesto is vegetarian. I’ve certainly never had trouble finding a veggie one and all of the big supermarkets close to me do multiple vegan ones too!

I like;

quorn ham/chicken slices with tomatoes or salad and mustard
Falafel and houmous with salad (especially in a toasted bagel)
Avocado with pesto and sundried tomatoes
Houmous and salad or roasted peppers
The quorn spicy chicken style burgers (cold) in a roll with leaves, avocado and pesto
Onion bhaji and lime pickle

I want a sandwich now.

Oh wow, some delicious options here, thank you all, also loving the vegan suggestions!

Go vegan then! I was veggie for years but now vegan. There’s so much info online and so much variety to choose from.

I think a lot of jarred pesto is vegetarian.

As pesto is made of basil, parmesan, pine nuts and a bit of olive oil, it is vegetarian.

@AlfonsoTheMango Parmesan is not vegetarian

Felafel, avocado, basil and honey. Works well with a wee bit of mozzarella in too )the squishy kind)
Houmous, grated apple & carrot and chilli
Houmous, feta and grilled red pepper from a jar
Quorn sausages with sliced tomato and mayonnaise
Grilled aubergine with rocket and tomato sauce
Onion bhaji with mango chutney and salad

Parmesan isn’t vegetarian. It’s got rennet in it.

Peanut butter
Egg and cress
Cheese and beetroot
Cheese and marmite
Salad
Cucumber

When I'm bored of regular cheese sandwiches I will have Quorn ham and a little Mayo, or peanut butter and jam, or an Emmental slice, or marmite. In the summer I also like a salad sandwich with cucumber, grapes, tomatoes, spring onion and mayo. If it's hot sandwiches I make sausage sandwiches (Richmond veggie ones are awesome), or egg.

Peanut butter and Marmite

Goats cheese and beetroot
Stilton, walnut and rocket
Cashew nut butter and thinly sliced strawberries.

I’m going by the title for vegetarian and not vegan suggestions. I prefer some sandwich fillings as wraps, stuffed in pita 🥙or they can be made into sandwiches 🥪

Simple fillings:

• Avocado (sliced or mashed) and smoked salmon with a runny egg
• Beans, Lettuce and Tomato Salsa wrap (I’ve used kidney beans, butter beans, any kind seems to work)
• Cucumber finger sandwiches
• Egg salad with watercress
• Falafel, hummus, cucumber and sliced boiled eggs in a wrap
• Feta cheese, cucumber and tomato (all diced up and mixed together)
• Green salad wrap with a herby lemon dipping sauce
• Hot and spicy fried mashed potato with ketchup
• Pickled beetroot with goat cheese and rocket
• Sliced aubergine grilled with mushrooms and cheese
• Tadka dhal with coriander
• Wilted spinach and spiced potato wrap

She’s vegetarian, vegetarians don’t eat fish,

Tomato & mayonnaise

Avocado & caponata

Mushrooms fried in garlic butter

There's some really beautiful suggestions here.

I have to hold my hand up I love a beautiful tomato (I've grown some sungold tomatoes and they are wonderful) a sprinkle of salt and I'm very very happy.

You need the best tasting tomato you can find not those mass produced red balloons of water, they are just vile.

Boiled egg coddled with butter and a bit of salad cream.
Banana sandwiches
Cheese & beetroot
Cream cheese & salad
Salad with hummus or salad cream
Marmite
(Not a vegetarian)

Peanut butter
Red onion
Dried cranberries
Honey mustard
Slice of cheddar

It sounds like a crazy combo, but it’s delicious. Had it in a cafe once and now make it all the time. You can also mix and match the ingredients so the cheese is not mandatory.

Not forgetting the classic crisp sandwich!
