Vegan Sandwich Lunch Ideas

Vegan Sandwich Lunch Ideas

2 Comments

If you know me, you know I love sandwiches. Just typing that out, I feel like Joey from Friends. Ha! It’s just a quick and easy lunch staple, and there are endless possibilities when you eat plant-based/vegan. Some of the below are actual recipes and some are just for ingredient inspiration. I hope that this compilation gives you some new ideas for lunch (or any time of day, really). They are all filling and perfect to bring to work/school, too.

LOL. Okay, onto the vegan sandwich inspiration.

Balsamic Tempeh in a Pita Wrap

What I Eat As A Breastfeeding Vegan Mom — Pita sandwich with hummus, spinach, lettuce, carrots, and balsamic tempeh. I simply marinade the tempeh in balsamic vinegar and olive oil with some salt and pepper for an hour or so and then bake on a lined sheet at 400 F for 25 minutes. I store leftovers in the fridge for sandwiches/salads during the week, too!

Buffalo Tempeh

What I Eat As A Breastfeeding Vegan Mom — Buffalo tempeh sandwich. Recipe for buffalo tempeh HERE. I have lettuce and mayo on this one, but you can add anything. I think tomato would be an awesome addition.

Cream Cheese Sammy

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Third Trimester — Spinach, tomato, and cream cheese sandwich on lightly toasted bread.

Spinach and Avocado

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Third Trimester — Sautéed spinach and avocado are a great combination. I love this for breakfast.

Tofu + Quinoa

Plant-Based Diet: What I Ate — Tofu and quinoa wrap with all the veggies (such as red pepper, cucumber, and spinach).

Bagel Sandwich

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Third Trimester — White bean salad bagel sandwich. Recipe for the filling HERE.

Broccoli Rabe

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Second Trimester — Broccoli rabe, garlic, and olive oil in a sandwich. I just prepare the broccoli rabe in a pan with a little water, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Once wilted, slap it between some bread.

Tofurky and Cheese

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Second Trimester — Tofurky + chao cheese sandwich, if you are into mock meat and cheese products.

Veggie Burger Wrap

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Second Trimester — Veggie burger wrap. Use your favorite vegan burger and add some veggies and dressing. Above is with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mustard.

White Bean Salad

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Second Trimester — Again, the white bean salad but on regular ‘ol bread. If you want to switch things up, there is also an amazing chipotle chickpea salad recipe that I love.

Ranch Burrito

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Third Trimester — I share the recipe for this ranch burrito here – it is in a bowl in the recipe, but just dump it all into the wrap!

Tofurky and Veggie

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Second Trimester — Tofurky + veggie sandwich with mustard.

Falafel Wrap

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Second Trimester — Find your favorite falafel (I like Trader Joe’s frozen falafel for a fast and easy fix) and wrap up with hummus, tahini, cucumber, and lettuce.

Tofu and Avocado

Vegan Tofu Pesto Breakfast Sandwich — Tofu and avocado breakfast sandwich with some pesto.

Loaded Veggie + Beans

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Third Trimester — A wrap with black beans, barley (or any grain), avocado, spinach, red pepper, corn, and onion.

Mediterranean Inspired

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Second Trimester — Mediterranean wrap featuring roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, avocado, cucumber, hummus, and lettuce.

Sweet Potato + More

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Second Trimester — Sweet potato with black beans, tomato, lettuce, cucumbers, and pickled onions.

Collard Greens Wrap

Collard Green Wrap — Love using a collard leaf for a veggie wrap. This one has sliced carrots, red pepper, cauliflower (can’t see it much), and mustard.

Sweet Potato Burrito

What I Eat As A Breastfeeding Vegan Mom — I shared the recipe for this sweet potato and black bean wrap HERE.

Roasted Red Peppers

Pregnant Vegan Meals - First Trimester — Soft bread piled high with roasted red peppers (tossed with olive oil, balsamic, and lots of garlic!)

Gardein Chickenless Strips

What I Eat As A Breastfeeding Vegan Mom — Gardein chickenless sandwich with some mayo + lettuce.

Meatless Balls

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Second Trimester — The Ikea veggie balls are so versatile, but you can use any meatless meatball (homemade or frozen). I cooked these up with some olive oil, garlic, onions, and peppers. A meatless ball and onion sandwich is also a good option.

Portobello Burger

What I Eat As A Breastfeeding Vegan Mom — Portobello mushroom burger + lettuce in a pita pocket with some vegan mayo.

Baked Tofu

What I Eat As A Breastfeeding Vegan Mom — Baked crispy tofu, lettuce + just mayo in a wrap. My recipe for baked tofu can be found HERE.

Mozz Veggie Burger

What I Eat As A Breastfeeding Vegan Mom — Sweet potato burger (frozen brand from Whole Foods) with vegan mozz, avocado, and lettuce.

Cream Cheese and Tomato Bagel

Pregnant Vegan Meals - Third Trimester — Spinach bagel with Tofutti cream cheese + tomato as a sandwich.
