Any ideas on a good meat substitute for sandwiches?

Ricardo's veggie pâté. It's awesome, unfortunately, I can't provide a link since I don't have 5 posts, but you should be able to google it

It should have 5124-veggie-pate in the URL

 

Your first post on Prius chat is regarding food?

 

A grilled portabella or eggplant can work.
I've used humus as a condiment on sandwiches. You could bulk it up with grated veggies.

 

Go with what you know!

 

It's my second post!

I would have posted about my new (to me) Prius, but it's snowing and it's a bad time for pictures. She'll look nicer with the summer wheels and the window tint.

 

BLT without the bacon on toasted whole wheat is still pretty good/refreshing.

 

Hard to beat a good ham and cheese sandwich. A very important part of being Irish!

 

Why not?

 

Spam™ sandwich = the other pink meat.

 

Concur, but I have some small respect for the sincere veggies out there....as long as they don't start to resemble Missionary Baptist preachers.

I used to love Spam on toast w/mustard!
Probably very close to being vegitarian......not so much for being healthy.

How about the Mk-1, Mod-0 PBJ???

Interesting, I've never had it but I'm willing to make some and see how it goes.

 

This Priuschat is suppose to keep my mind off food. Now after reading this thread, I'm feeling hungry.

 

NO meat or dairy...

Man... I'd friggen starve.

I do often make portabello, or shitake roasted with olive oil sprinkled with garlic and fresh salsa...

I prefer them with provalone and grated romano on top though...



As for what's for dinner tonight:
Filet mignon with garlic shallot butter
Scalloped potatoes
Steamed broccoli, carrots and cauliflower with fresh tomatillo salsa.

 

I'm on day 31 of vegetable/fruit juice fast. 28 lbs down and not one bite of solid food including meat. Can't believe I ever, ever thought those words would come out of my mouth and with a smile. Nope.

 

Good ideas

Grilled eggplant and grilled capsicum (or aubergine and pepper in proper English), with a bit of olive oil and some basil or fresh cilantro (coriander in English). It would benefit from some low-fat cream cheese if you can bring yourself to use a little bit of dairy, but it's nice on its own too. You can throw in some sun-dried tomatoes, but it could make it a little bit greasy. Either way, it's lovely.

As above, but with a bit of pesto spread on the bread.

Raw red or yellow capsicum, tomatoes and hummus.

Spinach and rocket leaves with some good sliced tomatoes and a bit of balsamic vinegar. Not too much vinegar, though, or the sandwiches will go soggy.

Possibly less-good ideas

Sliced cucumbers. Pretend you're Southern English. This, I think, is proof that Southern English people cannot cook. It's why, when my Dad lived in Southern England, he'd go to France every night for dinner.

Or you could go for the Northern English classic, the chip butty. It avoids meat and dairy, but I am not convinced of the health benefits.

 

Not wrapped in newspaper??!!

 

Not if it's in a sandwich. But proper fish and chips in newspaper was one of the great pleasures of my youth.

 

Wth?? I have to ask my English wife about this strange looking sandwich!

 

Careful. If she's Northern English and lives in LA and you mention chip butties to her, you might make her so homesick that she'll be in a cab to LAX before you've finished your question.
