Vegan sandwich protein (lemmy.ml)

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?

Look for Jackfruit, usually founs in Asian markets (canned) Young Green jackfruit is another great "meaty" substitute.

Brian and rinse them, smash them with the flat of your knife, and run your knife over them. Season with spices (I use a toasted spice blend, but try some bbq seasoning blends). and you have a Pulled pork substitute.

Avoid hidden sugars in food, esp. in the US where HFCS is in eeeevvvverything.

Oh yeah, I have some jackfruit sitting around. I hadn't really thought of using it, though, because it's meaty but low in protein. I should pull that out for a recipe, though!
