To keep with the theme of easy recipes that can be made in minutes, today I'm featuring sandwiches. Many people have "go-to" sandwiches that they make over and over again (myself included), but isn't it fun to mix it up once in a while?

Below is an easy recipe for faux turkey melts. All you need for this jazzed-up version of your plain ol' faux turkey sandwich is bread, avocado, vegan turkey slices, vegan cheese, and a heaping spoonful of vegan mayo. After layering the ingredients, place the open-face sandwich under a broiler until the cheese begins to melt and the bread becomes lightly toasted. Simple, yet delish.
Here are a few more interesting vegan sandwich ideas you can try if faux turkey isn't your favorite:
Enjoy!
Faux Turkey Melts
2 slices bread
1/2 Tbsp. vegan mayonnaise
4 slices vegan turkey
1/4 avocado, sliced
2 Tbsp. shredded vegan Monterey jack cheese
•Spread the vegan mayonnaise on one slice of bread. Add the turkey slices, the avocado, and then the cheese.
•Place both the dressed bread and the plain bread under a broiler until the cheese begins to melt and the bread toasts. Remove from the oven and close the sandwich.

Vegan turkey is TOFURKY a product made from tofu and marketed under the above name. Comes in slices and had a nice smoky flavor and meat-like texture.
