11 delicious vegetarian sandwiches
I don’t know about you, but I think the sandwich is very underrated. I often think of it as a pretty boring lunch, probably because my sandwiches usually consist of cheese and lettuce, and not much else. Buuut, when I find a really good sandwich (epic avocado sandwich alert), it’s a revelation! And now that packed lunch season is well and truly upon us, I thought you might like a little veggie inspiration.
So here are 11 amazing vegetarian sandwiches for you to pack into your kid’s lunch boxes, eat at your desk, or just sit and snarf in your PJs.

I NEED substance)… but, I especially love a GREAT vegetarian sandwich! Your roundup is fabulous! I would eat each and every one of those sammies in a heartbeat! Cheers to a day as fab as this roundup!
Your enthusiasm is contagious! :)
Thanks for the shout-out for my egg salad in pita. I love that, but I’m also a huge fan of hummus or avocado on sandwiches!
My favourite sandwiches are either avo, spring onion, olive oil, and tomato all mashed together, or hummous, red pepper, tomato and fresh mushroom.
I love chip butties. Just fluffy white bread, butter, hot chips and a little bit of salt and ketchup. Yum :)
Ah like the mighty crisp sandwich, the chip butty is something I turn to as ultimate comfort food. Good shout!
I am a pesto girl! :-)
I love cheese and salt and vinegar crisps!
JUST cheese and crisps? You’re my hero ;)
Hey Pesto sounds fab but anything with all types of cheese, avocado, pine nuts or sweet tomatoes in it is a sure fire winner. Lovely prize
mozzarella, basil and tomato on brown
Yum, I’m hungry after looking at all those tasty looking sandwiches! My current favourite sandwich is one piled high with veggies – cream cheese or houmous as a base, then grated carrot, tomato, lettuce and cucumber, with a bit of feta too if I’m using houmous.
Bruschettas are always great. Also love pita wraps with fresh hummous or guacamole. Healthy and sooo tasty!
My Mum’s salad sandwiches are the best!
wensleydale on granary, delicious!
I want to eat every single one of these sandwiches Becca.
So nice to see some more interesting vegetarian sandwiches!
Oh yay. Loads of good ideas, I love grated carrot and houmous. Delicious.
My favourite sandwich is actually one of your very old ones that was my introduction to your blog – Halloumi with Peri-Peri vegetables. I’m so glad my brother-in-law got us a random bottle of Nando’s sauce that I had no idea what to do with, because I’ve been hooked on your recipes ever since!
Ooh I haven’t made that in AGES! Thanks for the reminder, that might just be my lunch today ;)
That Epic Avocado sandwich looks like a proper naughty treat. And it contains my favourite sandwich filling: crisps! :-)

I love the sound of the Argi bhaji as I do like mango chutney, but I love caramelised onions too! What a great selection.
A fried egg sandwich!!
Saddened that I live in the US now. Can they ship overseas? :-)
Afraid not, as the hamper needs to be chilled :( I’ll try to do a worldwide giveaway soon!
Cranks! haven’t thought of them in years! They were the very first veggie restaurant I visited, 40 years ago when my boyfriend was living in London. Wonderful place.
I’ve never made it down to the restaurant, definitely somewhere I’d love to visit!
my favourite sandwich is cheese and pickle x
Brie with sun-dried tomatoes (aka cheese & tomato!) in ciabatta bread. I also enjoy anything with avocado :)
Grilled vegetables and halloumi is my current fave
Hummus and roasted pepper is my go-to. Usually when I have the right combination of leftovers in the fridge. All the best sandwiches are made with leftovers, I think :)
Mozzarella,basil pesto and sundried tomatos
Goats Cheese & Tomato is my favourite sandwich at the moment :)
Oh man, I love these sandwiches!! They sold them at my university union and considering everything else was just meat meat meat, these were great! The cheddar gorge one is unreal. Hope to win!!
My favourite sandwich is avocado, goat cheese, pesto, roasted sweet potatoes, and alfalfa on sourdough bread. :-)
