3 Plant Based Sandwiches EVERYONE will LOVE | Restaurant Quality

Video Description

I've worked at a handful of restaurants throughout my life and have picked up a few things along the way. These sandwiches are vegan versions of some of my favourites. The first is a Baked Tofu, brie and fig jam sandwich with spiced apples and spinach on a toasted ciabatta bun. The second a classic mediterranean roasted veggie sandwich where I show you how to make a quick oil-free hummus to go on it and a tasty avocado spread to tie it all together. The third is a plant based version of the classic Sloppy Joe! Instead of ground meat I use lentils. It's a bit sweet, smoky and definitely sloppy.
