Guest guest Posted October 8, 2000 Report Share Posted October 8, 2000 My husband surprised me yesterday by saying that he would be willing to try to go totally meatless, except what was he going to bring in for lunch at work! He always brown-paper bags one or two cold-cut sandwiches. Personally, I always hated lunch meat, even if fresh from the deli. I am forever eating soup & pasta for lunch in little microwave bowls. My husband however, doesn't have any time to microwave on his job though and we are on a budget which is why he likes cold-cuts. Anyone have any ideas besides just cheese sandwiches? Is the alternative cold veggie sandwiches? - Still sick, but getting better each day! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 8, 2000 Report Share Posted October 8, 2000 Hi. If your husband really likes meat, they have soy based meat products which would be great in a sandwich. Morningstar Farms makes chicken patties, there are countless brands of veggie burgers, and there are also soy lunch " meats " . Some of them are very similar to real lunch meats. If your regular supermarket doen't carry these things (Safeway, Giant here in DC carry at least some of them), you can try healthfood stores/markets. Good luck! I wish I could convince my husband to eat vegetarian.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2000 Report Share Posted October 8, 2000 hi chris!!!! there is a brand called Yves that can be found in any grocery store (at least in Washington State) that makes fantastic fake deli meat, and the brand Tofurkey also makes deli slices that are fantastic!!!! -cherrie My husband surprised me yesterday by saying that he would be willing to try to go totally meatless, except what was he going to bring in for lunch at work!

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2000 Report Share Posted October 25, 2000 Oven roasted vegetables with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Cut up red / green peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, onions, tomatoes, garlic, eggplant. sprinkle with olive oil. Cook in the oven for about 40 minutes to an hour. Slice up a baguette and put balsamic vinegar on the bread and some sliced up mozerella cheese. I like the fresh, but packaged works. Then put the vegetables on it. You can also put pesto, hummus or veggie mayo or mustard on the sandwich. I know in New York City a small sandwich like that would sell for at least $5. It is sooo Good! You could try different cheeses and add on some veggie slices.
