I love veggie sandwiches! I go for Subway's veggie sub alot (even though I add mayo or cheese Wink lol)I really enjoy roasted marinated red peppers instead of tomatoes sometimes - it makes the sandwich more tasty for me and when the available tomatoes are kinda icky the marinated red peppers make a great alternative. I love tomato sandwiches too (mayo, salt & pepper, beautifully ripe tomatoes and great white bread). I like that you included vinegar in this recipe - you never go wrrong with a little oil & vinegar on a sandwich in my book.

Ooh, and I should have agreed that there is absolutely nothing like a "mater" sandwich with HOMEGROWN tomatoes, Duke's mayo, salt & pepper on white bread!

This sounds like a plowman's sandwich. When the plowman would work in the field, he'd take a chunk of bread with him and at lunch he'd load it with what was available in the field. Yummy no matter what it's called!

I love a Breakfast Sandwich and Vanilla Coffee!  Always use high fibre bread.  Fry an egg with cooking spray.  Sprinkle the bottom slice with Sharp Cheddar and Cayenne Pepper.  Sprinkle green onion tops chopped.  Fry a slice of ham with cooking spray. This sandwich is delicious with Vanilla Coffee.  I usually brew Folgers vanilla.  You can get it on sale at Walgreens every 5 months.  Buy 2 when it is on sale.  After this breakfast, you feel satisfied and strong ready for the work day!

Sounds very good, but when I have a sandwhich I have to have some meat or some substance, so I would probably add some tuna.

I'm not a veggie maniac but I had too much lettuce, tomato, peppers, cucumbers, etc. I roasted what could be roasted and made a dressing with the cucumbers and wahlah! On crusty rye bread....deelicious!

oh my gosh ! When the veggies come in in our area(TN.) there's nothin' like a tomato and cucumber with green peppers maybe some Ranch type dressing and anything else you care to add between two slices of toasted whole wheat ..it can't get any better than that on a hot summers day

Not sure what stores you have by you, but it's in the natural food section of Wegman's where I go. http://www.followyourheart.com/products.php?id=20 It's more expensive but it tastes great. :)INGREDIENTS: Grapeseed Oil, Filtered Water, Apple Cider Vinegar, Brown Rice Syrup, Soy Protein, Sea Salt, Lemon Juice Concentrate, and Mustard Flour. It's vegan! Since going vegan, I eat all day long and lose weight effortlessly. I had out of control diabetes and now it's down to normal. Soon I expect to go off medicine completely.
