Prepare the Layers:

Substitutions
- Bread: You can swap sub bread with whole wheat bread or even a gluten-free option if needed.
- Eggs: If you're not into eggs, try replacing them with grilled tofu, or scrambled chickpea flour for a vegan version.
- Avocados: If you don’t have avocados, use hummus or mashed sweet potatoes for a creamy texture.
- Caramelized onions: You can switch these out for grilled zucchini or sautéed spinach for different flavors.
Variations
- Cheese Upgrade: Add some melted cheddar or pepper jack cheese for a cheesier version.
- Eggs-periment: Instead of boiled eggs, you can include scrambled eggs, rolled omelette or layer fried eggs for a different flavor and texture in sandwich.
- Spicy Kick: Add jalapeños or a drizzle of sriracha for a spicy twist.
- Vegan Option: You can swap the eggs with boiled chickpeas for a different texture or a dairy-free cheese and a use a vegan spread for the sandwich.
Storage
- Storing: If you have leftovers, you can store the sandwich components (like roasted veggies and boiled eggs) in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator. Assemble fresh when ready to eat.
- Reheating: Reheat the roasted vegetables in a skillet or microwave, then assemble the sandwich fresh to avoid soggy bread.
How to serve
Serve this Loaded Egg Subway-Style Sandwich warm, fresh off the skillet. I like to pair it with a refreshing orange and Pomegranate salad or some air fired veg nuggets for a complete, filling meal.
FAQ
