  • 4 thin slices of bread
  • 2 tsp fairy-free butter
  • 2 tbsp vegan pesto
  • 1 antipasti roasted red pepper, drained and cut into strips
  • Vegan ham & cheese sandwiches
  • 4 slices Quorn Vegan Smoku Ham Free Slices
  • 4 thin slices of bread
  • 4 tsp dairy-free butter
  • 2 large slices of vegan cheddar
  • Cucumber sandwiches
  • 1/4 medium cucumber
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 4 thin slices of bread
  • 4 tsp dairy-free butter
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1/2 tsp garlic granules
  • 1/4 tsp ground peppercorns

Method

  1. Butter the bread slices with the dairy-free butter.

For the Vegan Chicken, Pesto & Roasted Pepper Sanwiches

  1. Spread the pesto on 2 slices and top each with 2 of the Quorn Vegan Chicken-Free Slices.
  2. Add strips of roasted pepper to the other two slices and carefully sandwich together with the pesto slices.

For the Vegan Ham & Cheese Sandwiches

  1. Add 2 of the Quorn Vegan Ham-Free Slices to 2 slices of the buttered bread.
  2. Add the cheese slices to the remaining 2 slices and sandwich together with the Quorn ones.

For the Cucumber Sandwiches

  1. Use a mandolin or sharp knife to carefully cut the cucumber into thin slices.
  2. Add the cucumber to a colander, sprinkle with the salt and leave for 10-15 minutes to release excess water. Rinse and then pat dry with a kitchen towel.
  3. Meanwhile, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic granules and extra salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  4. Arrange the cucumber on 2 slices of the buttered bread and use a pastry brush to apply a thin coat of the marinade to the cucumber. Sandwich with the remaining slices.

To Serve

  1. Use a large sharp knife to trim the edges of each sandwich. Make sure the edges are neat, removing the crust completely and that you retain a symmetrical square.
  2. For classic finger sandwiches, simply slice into three uniform strips. For triangles, cut diagonally in both directions. For squares, simply quarter.
  3. Serve immediately, or arrange on a large tray, sprinkle with a little water and cover with cling film for up to 24 hours in the fridge.
