I'm looking for a vegan sandwich protein recipe that is more of a whole food than the highly processed food that is often found in stores. So far, I'm going to try out lentil patties. I figure I can freeze a batch and stick them in the air fryer as needed. Any other ideas?
Oh, yeah, that's a fine level of processing. I guess I'm mostly worried about getting a decent balance of nutrients and not having too much sodium. I can see tempeh or tofu sliced to be very thin. I've not been much for a lot of the seitan products out there, but maybe I can give it another try.
It's super easy to make your own seitan, but if you just don't like it that's a different issue entirely. (I on the other hand love seitan but can't stand tempeh.)
I've only had limited exposure to seitan. Usually it's had a chewiness to it that I found unpleasant. I found tempeh to be more satisfying. Thinking back, it's mostly been in the form of the "kielbasa" type sausages.
We take for granted that if you engage in this community, you understand that veganism is about the animals. You either are vegan for the animals, or you are not (this is not to say that discussions about climate/environment/health are not allowed, of course)
No omni/carnist apologists. This is not a place where to ask to be hand-holded into veganims. Omnis coddling/backpatting is not tolerated, nor are /r/DebateAVegan-like threads

I can definitely see what you mean. That's something I enjoy about it, but I get it might not be for everyone.
