INSTRUCTIONS

For the filling

1. In a small saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Remove from heat, add the TVP, cover, and let sit until fully rehydrated.
   

2. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, finely chopped shallots, diced pickles, garlic powder, Herbes de Provence, agave syrup, salt, and pepper.
   

3. Once the TVP is fully rehydrated and drained, add it to the sauce mixture. Stir well to coat evenly.
   

For assembly

1. Spread mayonnaise on one slice of toasted bread. Layer with 1 to 2 lettuce leaves, 2 tomato slices, and half of the filling.
   

2. Add a second slice of toasted bread, also spread with mayonnaise. Top with 1 to 2 lettuce leaves, the remaining filling, 2 to 3 slices of vegan bacon, and 1 slice of plant-based cheese.
   

3. Finish with a third slice of toasted bread, spread with mayonnaise on the inner side.
   

4. Insert a toothpick into the centre of each sandwich quarter to hold the layers together. Cut the sandwich into 4 triangles.
   

5. Serve immediately and enjoy!
