Eating vegan can seem incredibly challenging, mostly because it is very difficult to give up foods that you enjoy eating. After following a vegan diet for a year and half, I have managed to find new favorite foods and alternatives to my old favorite foods. Sandwiches are a stable lunch item in the standard American diet; I have come up with a few different delicious sandwich ideas that have become my go to packed lunch item for a day on the slopes.

Fruity PB & J Sandwich

Bread of choice, peanut butter, sliced bananas, blueberries & raspberry preserves.

Avocado Sandwich

Bread of choice, avocado, tomatoes, lettuce, bell peppers & any other veggies or fresh herbs of choice. (Sprouts, onion, cilantro, basil, mushrooms)

Hummus Sandwich

Bread of choice, hummus, sprouts, cucumbers, spinach & lemon juice.

Veggie Burger

Bread of choice, vegan burger of choice, tomatoes, lettuce, avocado, ketchup & any other fixings.

Vegan Fried Chicken Sandwich

Bread of choice, vegan chicken nuggets (Gardein brand is great!), avocado, lettuce, & hot sauce.

These are a few of my favorite sandwich combos at the moment, these all take just a few minutes to prepare and make for a great healthy packed lunch choice! I really enjoy having these sandwiches on toasted whole grain seed bread.
