At the time I thought it was missing something. No meat? How is that a sandwich without some sliced turkey or ham?
Today I find myself loving veggie-only sandwiches. Adding cheese or hummus for some protein does the trick!
Today my sandwich was another meat-free creation.
Tomato
Goat Cheese
I toasted a Nature’s Own whole wheat sandwich round and topped it with a sliced juicy tomato and melted goat cheese.
On the side I had cauliflower which I roasted last night after tossing it in a bit of olive oil and sprinkling it with garlic salt.
Garlic Roasted Cauliflower
I swear when I roast cauliflower this way it reminds me of popcorn. Call me crazy, but it does!
Lunch Time!
I also munched on a cool, crisp apple.
An Apple a Day...
I didn’t even miss the meat! 😀

Yep– I love my meat-free sammies! Although I’d want a little more than just lettuce and mayo 🙂
Awww thanks for the blog bday shout out!!! 🙂
I love veggie/cheese sandwiches and of course, I’m a huge fan of PB & J.
I think we were on the same wavelength today with the veggie-filled, meat free lunch! 🙂
Growing up, I used to have a friend who would eat a miracle whip & cheese sandwich every single day!
that sounds delicious! 🙂
All of my sandwiches are meat-free, but when it comes to packing them to take to work/school, I tend to stick with plain almond butter or plain cheese. I ALWAYS get weird reactions when people find out that all that is on my sandwich is a couple of slices of swiss cheese but I enjoy it so much! 🙂
My bff still eats tomatoes and salt as you would apples. Not me though!
However, you’ve got me craving something with goat cheese for dinner! I’ll have to see what I can whip up!
I can’t lie…I usually feel like if I don’t have some form of meat with lunch and dinner then I am missing something. I don’t need it at breakfast but I have to have it at lunch and dinner. Even if it is a meat substitute (like boca or morningstar) I still need that “meat” idea! haha!
mmmm i love me some veggie sammies! goat cheese and tomato is such a delicious combo 🙂 thanks for those links girl!
I rarely eat meat, so I never really miss it! 🙂
I love veggies sandwiches, but I would also need a little more than just lettuce and mayo.
roasted cauliflower DOES taste like popcorn…only better 🙂
I love sliced tomato with goat cheese! Great combo. I go meat free without even thinking about it sometimes but I could never give it up completely.
Since becoming a vegetarian, I’ve dealt with a lot of people asking where the meat is, but I don’t miss it at all! I love hummus in my sammies 🙂
I love veggie sandwiches. I’m plenty happy with avocado on them instead of meat. 🙂
OK, I can do meat-free (lots of times I prefer it), but the thought of a lettuce and mayo sandwich made me nauseous. Ick. I have a thing with mayo (as in it makes me want to gag) but even if I liked it that’s a gross sandwich. Yours looks so, so good though!
I love veggie and cheese sandwiches, especially since I’m not a huge meat eater. That combo looks great!! 🙂
Even though I’m a meat eater, I definitely appreciate a good veggie sandwich…especially when there’s cheese involved! I do need a decent amount of fat & protein to stay full, so double cheese might be necessary 😉
love your meat free sandwich… yum!
i was totally telling someone at work today that my favorite sandwich growing up with mayo with tomatoes on bread… they found it disgusting.
I think it tastes like popcorn too!
Haha, lettuce and mayo. Here in mozambique, a lot of the locals love ketchup (well its really just runny tomato flavored sauce) and mayo sandwiches. that´s it. to make it even better, the one brand available is called Tangy Mayo. Really makes you hungry, right?
i can get behind most flavor combinations but that sounds awful! 🙂
Hey you are referencing my sandwich from grade school! It sounds a little nasty now! Do you know whenever I bring that sandwich up to my parents, they claim to have”forgotten” all memories of me having sandwiches like that? I’m glad you can attest to that! Anyways, funny!
hahaha you know it! i was wondering if you’d notice. 😉
