Vegan Philly Cheezsteak Sandwich
"I began with tofu, but not just any tofu: slow-baked tofu with all the right spices. That combined with an avocado aioli, sautéed veggies, vegan jack cheddar cheese, on a crusty hoagie loaf, this vegan sandwich was bound and determined to be a winner. And it was. These are not your run-of-the-mill, make every day kind of sandwiches. Although you could if you wanted to. It takes a little time in preparing them, but they are well worth the effort...."
