cottonmama Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 For recital refreshments. I want to make something with no nuts or meat. If you chose other, please post your ideas. :) ETA: There will be other people bringing sandwiches, so I don't feel like it needs to meet every constraint out there -- dairy free, kid-friendly, etc. I just want something that will get eaten. I know we have vegetarians coming, and the signup sheet specifically said no nuts of any kind. Also, making a note to myself that if I do jelly, I will need to open a new jar since we are not careful about peanut butter and cross-contamination.

Laura Corin Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 cucumber and hummus? I thought about adding hummus to my veg, but it contains tahini, and I don't know now much cross-over there is with nut allergy and sesame seeds, and whether the same factories tend to make both tahini and nut butters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadia Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Hubby brings home vegetarian sandwiches from company in-house lunch sometimes. The one I like has sliced red peppers, portobello mushrooms, alfalfa sprouts. Something like the link below http://vegetarian.about.com/od/vegetarianbarbecuerecipes/r/portabellasam.htm I also like vegetarian chicken sandwich but the vegetarian chicken patties are expensive to buy for a party and abit of work to make from scratch.

cottonmama Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 I thought about adding hummus to my veg, but it contains tahini, and I don't know now much cross-over there is with nut allergy and sesame seeds, and whether the same factories tend to make both tahini and nut butters. I go back and forth on hummus. My son is actually the only nut-allergic kid there that I'm aware of, and it would make me nervous if there were, say, pesto sandwiches on the table, especially on the same plate as other things my son might eat or worse, hidden in things I didn't know about, but it would not make me nervous if there were hummus there. We would just skip the hummus, and a bit of cross contamination between hummus and other things there would be very, very unlikely to cause a problem. OTOH I don't know how common seed allergies are; if someone's actively allergic to sesame, that would be a problem. But not knowing that, and knowing that someone could be allergic to almost anything I choose, I don't know that I need to worry about that. Maybe? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsquirrel Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 You can make hummus without tahini. I own some old cookbooks (one is Lebanese) and I have recipes called 'hummus with tahini' and 'hummus' that has no tahini. So, it can go either way. But, either the pimento cheese or the cucumber and cream cheese because I am not my 10 year old who would want the cream cheese and jelly. But there is also seitan, roasted veggies, chick pea salad (like tuna salad, but made with chick peas), refried beans and salsa in a tortilla roll up, egg salad sandwich, 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orthodox6 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Don't care much for cream cheese other than the vegan brand, Daiya. Have a particular revulsion toward pimento cheese, dating from childhood. :001_smile: Hummus without tahini leaves me puzzled, so would be glad to hear from Redsquirrel what is used as the "binder". Thanks! The "mock tuna salad", also mentioned by Redsquirrel, captures my vote! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kewb Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 If you are looking for quick and easy I would go with a mock tuna made with chick peas. I also like mozzarella, roasted red pepper, and tomato with a balsamic drizzle. Cucumber, tomato, and sprouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaConquest Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 If you are worried about allergies, we make Sunflower Seed and Jelly sandwiches, and they are allowed at our nut-free camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wapiti Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Another vote for Sunbutter (made from sunflower seeds). My dd brings a sunbutter-and-jelly sandwich to her nut-free school classroom for lunch, every day. (That said, I have a ds who is allergic to peanut, tree nut, sesame seeds and....sunflower seeds :tongue_smilie:. If possible, label the sandwich tray!)

Sherry in OH Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 My favorite sandwich is mozzarella, tomato, and basil. If you want cucumber, cucumber and butter would probably appeal to more people than cucumber and cream cheese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenn- Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Although I can't eat any of them, I picked the one that would probably get eaten the most around here, pimento cheese. My personal favorite would probably be cucumber/cream cheese with fresh dill in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regentrude Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Caprese: bread, fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, basil. Dressed with a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Croissant, mayo, swiss cheese, sandwich pickles, lettuce... sliced tomatoes if you like them, but I don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you can't make a sandwich that would satisfy EVERYONE in a potluck situation. Or any category (salad, main dish, dessert, etc). I know I'd make myself crazy if I tried to do that.

MyThreeSons Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I'd like egg salad, please. :laugh: My all-time favorite veggie sandwich, though, is the one that Panera makes on the tomato basil bread, loaded with lots of good stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RKWAcademy Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 As others have suggested, mozzarella cheese, tomato, basil, balsamic, etc. Add roasted red pepper if you like. Same flavors as a caprese salad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KungFuPanda Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 My favorite is a garlicky bread smeared with pesto with a slice of mozzarella, a bit of spinach, and a tomato :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Um_2_4 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 feta cheese, cucumber and mint (fresh) please or roll-ups of cream cheese (mixed with ranch dressing), avocado, tomato, cheese (your choice, montery jack is nice), lettuce. Roll up in WW tortillas and cut in half, pin with cute toothpicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptor_dad Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 We are GFCF and usually a very meaty paleo but how about black beans and roasted veggies on corn tortillas w/ whatever cheese and salsa seems appropriate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
