    This Goat Cheese and Veggie Sandwich is a vegetarian dream come true!

    Vegetarian options can be severely limited when eating out.

    My husband and I frequent Chinese buffets, Mexican restaurants, and sandwich shops for their easy-to-please menus. Most vegetarian sandwiches from restaurants involve giant mushrooms, hummus, or guacamole, and while those are all perfectly fine, I like a little variety in my life. At home I’ve struggled to find vegetarian alternatives to this beauty. Also? I might still want to eat this every day forever.

    The simplest solution to finding a killer vegetarian sandwich is to make one yourself. This Goat Cheese and Veggie Sandwich is one of my favorites. My main problem with vegetarian sandwiches is the lack of protein. Of course I can make a pretty fancy grilled cheese but I’m going to be hungry an hour later. I need something to fill me up and give me a toothsome bite. Enter pine nuts – slightly crunchy yet a little bit soft, they yield easily to the teeth.

    Roasted red peppers are the perfect pair to the pine nut flavor. My family won’t eat them because they look “strange,” so I mixed them right in to the whipped goat cheese. Finally no vegetarian sandwich is complete without cucumbers for crunch, tomatoes, and light, leafy greens. You can, of course, use any vegetables you may be growing in your garden and experiment with your favorite lettuce.

    What came together in the end is quite possibly the most mouth-pleasing sandwich I’ve ever created. It bursts with flavor and crunchy/creamy texture. What are your favorite meat-free options when eating out?

      This looks delicious! Love the idea of whipping the red pepper with the cheese, it’s the only way my kids will eat it. I am not a vegetarian, but I don’t like lunch meat, so I often look at the veggie option at a sandwich shop. But you are right, it is so much easier to make something filling and creative at home! There are only so many caprese or portobella sandwiches one can eat 🙂
