The “No-Egg” Vegan Egg Sandwich

The “No-Egg” Vegan Egg Sandwich … yes you have read this right, this is an egg sandwich without the eggs!

The “No-Egg” Vegan Egg Sandwich … yes you have read this right, this is an egg sandwich without the eggs! This is one of my favourite lunch recipes. It is as good as (if not better) the real thing! Perfect for work, school or picnics.

Inspired by tofu scramble, this recipe uses tofu, nutritional yeast, turmeric and vegan mayo to create a plant-based version of the timeless classic.

This is a quick and delicious vegan recipe, perfect for lunchboxes. I love it with baby kale or salad leaves and some vegetable crisps. Chives also work perfectly here.

This recipe makes enough filling for 4 egg sandwiches. It will keep for a few days in the fridge in an airtight container. Delicious with pitta bread or bagels too!
