Are you fond of vegan sandwiches? You need to delete cream cheese. Hey, not really!! There is non-dairy vegan cream cheese available that will satisfy your tingling taste buds and blend very well with the veggies. You’ll find the recipe below.

Grilled Vegan Sandwiches are my all time favorite. Zucchini lowers the cholesterol and helps in weight management. It is good for heart and also prevents cancer. Varieties of mushrooms are available. Anyone would do whether they are enokitake, buna-shimeji, bunapi-shimeji, king oyster mushroom or shiitake. Red bell peppers are excellent source of fiber, folate, vitamin K and minerals. Tomatoes are not only tasty but they are rich source of potassium and vitamins.

They reduce the risk of prostate cancer. They are filled with nutrients and antioxidants. Basil is an amazing healing agent. You can also use whole wheat bread instead of the normal one. And the best part is that these sandwiches can be served hot or cold. You don’t even need to disturb your sleep. Your hubby can grab the sandwich directly from the fridge. They are excellent lunch box delight and a good way to feed your kids. They can be carried away for picnics as well. Beneficial ain’t they?
