Some lunches to get us out of our sandwich rut:

CHICKEN POTATO CHOWDER

1/3 C. diced and cooked boneless breast or ground chicken
1/4 C. cubed and cooked potato
3 T. shredded mild Cheddar or American cheese substitute
1/4 C. milk substitute
2 tsp. vegan butter
Peas, parsnips and/or corn

Mix chicken, veggies, potato, milk substitute, and vegan butter in a small saucepan. Simmer over low heat for 10 minutes. Stir in cheese substitute. Serve warm.

CHEESE MELTS

Top a slice of rice bread, corn or rice tortilla with the following:
2 tomato slices
Strips of cooked thinly sliced chicken, natural ham, or ground turkey sausages
Top off with a slice of rice cheese

Hide some veggies like cooked Broccoli, Parsnip Slivers, Onions, Peppers, even Green Beans for example!
Broil in oven or toaster oven until rice cheese is melted.
Allow to cool prior to serving

PEANUT BUTTER & BANANA GRILLED SANDWICH

Warm frying pan
Lightly butter (using vegan margarin) 2 slices of whole grain bread

When frying pan has warmed, lay one slice of bread butter-side down and spread with sunbutter or golden pea butter and thinly sliced bananas
Top with remaining slice of bread; butter side up. Fry and flip sandwich as needed until bread becomes golden and toasted.

QUICK CHEESY VEGGIE QUESADILLA

1 corn or rice tortilla
2 slices of rice cheese
chopped cooked veggies

On the tortilla, spread out the veggies then cover with cheese slices
Bake or broil until cheese has melted
If broiling, watch carefully as cheese may burn quickly!
