Name: The Ultimate Veg Sandwich
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 30 min
Yield: 2
Ingredients: 4 slices of your favourite bread; 3 tbsp cream cheese (may use vegan cream cheese for vegan option); 8 slices vegan deli slices or vegan bacon (I use King's Vegetarian vegan bacon); 4 lettuce leaves or arugala or spinach leaves; 1 tomato sliced; 4 slices extra-firm tofu (~1cm thick)- can also use firm tofu; 2 tbsp vegan chipotle vegenaise (I use Earth Island brand); 2 tsp oil; 1/2 tsp asafoetida (aka hing); 1/2 cup sliced red peppers; 1/2 cup sliced zucchini; 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese (may use vegan cheddar cheese for vegan option, or omit); 1/2 ripe avocado (sliced); salt and pepper to taste; 1/4 cup all purpose flour; 1 tbsp corn starch; 1 tbsp nutritional yeast; salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Heat pan on medium heat and add 1 tsp oil. Once oil heated, add 1/2 tdp asafoetida and roast for 20 seconds. Add zucchinis and red pepper slices and roast for 4-5 minutes until browned on each side. Remove red pepper and zucchinis into a bowl.
Tofu Breading: Combine all tofu breading ingredients in a bowl. Lightly coat each tofu slice in breading on both sides. Using the same pan that was used for roasting red peppers, add another teaspoon oil and 1/2 tsp asafoetida on medium heat, once heated add tofu slices. Roast tofu slices ~4-5 mins each side until golden and crisp. Remove tofu for use later in sandwich.
Using the same pan, roast vegan deli slices/vegan bacon until browned flipping on each side. (May add additional oil if required)
You may toast your bread if preferred. I use slices whole grain bread. Spread cream cheese on one side of each slice of bread.
Layer lettuce, then 2 slices vegan deli/bacon, 1 tbsp chipotle vegenaise per sandwich, 2 tofu slices, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, 2 slices vegan deli/bacon, roasted zucchini, avocado slices then cheddar cheese. Then top with another layer of bread. (Feel free to add more or less of any preferred topping to make it your own!)
Cut in half and Bon Appetit!
