Vegan BLT

After a hiatus in Florida, and much procrastination, I have returned to fill your vacuous skulls with delectable foodstuffs. However, I am still a lazy fuck, so today's recipe is a quick sandwich, which should be easy enough for even the most brain damaged of you to make. There's even a bonus recipe at the end!

VEGAN BLT

Try to scrounge up this shit;
1 Hoagie, opened
1 large lettuce leaf, halved lengthwise (I prefer to use King Bok Choy, but it's up to you.)
1/2 plum tomato, sliced thin
1/2 Kirby Cucumber, sliced thin
1/4 cup chopped Pickled Jalapeno rings (recipe at the bottom of this post) 
3 slices Imitation Ham, cut into strips
3 Tablespoons Nayonaise (Vegan Mayo)

Optional: Sriracha

Now, as insane as this may sound to some of you, the recipe is as follows;
Slice open your Hoagie.
smear the 2 halves with the Vegan Mayo.
Build your sandwich as desired with the ingredients listed.
Close the sandwich.
Eat the motherfucker.

I like to layer the Leafy Greens, then Tomato slices, chopped Jalapeno, a little more Mayo, imitation Ham, Cucumber, and a little Sriracha on top. But hey, that's just me. You could do whatever the fuck you want. Just do it.

Pickled Jalapeno Rings

I'll try to keep this simple so no one dies.

2 cups thinly slices Jalapenos, seeds included
4 tablespoons raw Sugar
1 cup Rice Vinegar
1/3 cup Mirin (rice cooking wine)

Place all the ingredients together in a large jar, or and container with an airtight lid. Place it in a cool, dry place, NOT IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT, and let stand for 2 days. Refrigerate after they're good and pickled, and it will last you for at least a month. You can and will put this shit in EVERYTHING.

  1. I prefer Fakin - it's super smokey and has a nice gritty texture. I also like to use smashed avocado instead of veganaise sometimes.

    1. Gritty does not sound like an appealing texture. It makes me think of the way my eyes feel after a long night of tequila.
