This quick & easy tofu sandwich is satisfying and takes next to no time to make. It’s vegan and can easily be made gluten-free!
I started making this tofu sandwich back in high school, and although I don’t consider it a real “recipe”, it’s something that I make from time to time when I’m craving a sandwich or in need of a quick meal. It can be easily customized to your personal sandwich preferences and/or whatever you have on-hand at the moment.
