Monica has the best job in the world as food taster. 😂

I use to enjoy the chopped salads from subway. There is something about getting a little bit of everything distributed through that is delicious. And adding giardiniera is an a++ move in my books. Don't care if others aren't. That stuff is great.

It's easier to feed a crowd with chopped sandwich filling. More of the work is moved into prep, plus it's easier to stretch the expensive ingredients without anyone noticing.

I totally consider Tofurky to be the OG of fake meat. The textures they put out are fantastic, and they back it up with great flavor. Go, Tofurky! Gofurky!!! 📣

When I went to college, the sub shop made “sub in a cup”. It was a Any sub, chopped and served in a pint takeaway cup. Easy to eat on the run!

Chopped sandwiches seem like a great idea when eaten fresh, but I’m not sure they’d hold up if you had to pack it up to eat later. Especially love the idea of your chickUn BacUn ranch one!

That vegan chicken bacon ranch chopped sandwich is some seriously galaxy-brain stuff! I've seen people talking about the chopped sandwich but wasn't sure it could easily be made veggie-friendly, so thank you so much for showing that it's totally feasible!😊

Thank you for all your work. When I first went plant based, I was mostly eating basic mashed potatoes and beans and rice.

In Austria we have something similar. It's called 'gefüllter Wecken' and it is just a loaf of white bread, hollowed out and filled with what you have. When it is chilled overnight, it slices better..

This would work well as a wrap too. Good idea.

Theres a place that i love going to that makes an awesome chopped sub. It has grilled peppers, tomatoes, broccoli, collards, onions, mushrooms, lettuce, mayo and cheese. No veggie meat needed.

Hello!! I'm still hoping you'll do a seafood series soon!!!

I've been juicing and I'm home from work today and actually just made a lettuce, tomato onion and vegan mayo sandwich using 647 rye bread. Oil and vinegar. So full and fun. Lol. ❤

No black olives? HARUMPH!!!😊

Rehydrating bacon bits is blowing my mind! I’m gonna bulk buy some and have some “fresh” bacon dishes ASAP

FYI you can scrap off the burnt bits from the bread with a knife.

I love how you take inspiration from other channels. It's like you're not just a KZfaq creator, but you're one of us, a subscriber/viewer. On that note, have you ever watched any episodes from Epicurious?

I love you both!!!! Such warm inviting spirits!

Always like your videos. This looks like a great idea. It gave me the idea to make a chopped breakfast tortilla using just egg, vegan sausage, chao cheese, last night's left over fries and salsa.

@SauceStache Great video! Gave me some new ideas for what I call my vegan salad sandwich’s and wraps. 😊 I’ve been making vegan salads (chopping everything up) and putting them into vegan wraps, rolls, and my favorite bread for over 5 years. Just because I like how salads taste with toasted bread. 😊

GOOD AFTERNOON SAUCYMAN! I like the idea of the shopped sandwich lol. It practically assures that you get a bite of every single bit of the sandwich, every time.

Seeing you still use daring and tofurky makes me feel a bit less lazy for using them a lot and not making my own, not gonna lie 🤣

The second one looked so appealing. Wow. ❤ you upped it in a Boss way amazing

I do a chopped balogna, cheese american and cheddar, green olives, pepperoncini, mayo, Italian vinegarette, mama lil peppers. I add green and red cabbage over lettuce.❤

Thank you for this video. I can’t wait to make these sandwiches 🤩

Basically chopped cheese was what this sandwich is long before it became trendy

The first french fry sandwich I had was in Paris, France over 30 years ago. I thought how odd but I was hooked!!!!

Those sandwiches look amazing!!!

You can always scrape off the burnt parts of toast or that roll, just use a knife over the sink!

You’re looking great and healthy with your weight loss ❤ I’m going to make some of these chopped vegan sandwich’s! I think all do a Greek version! Thanks!

Not like I have any grounds to give you cooking advice, but maybe toast the rolls after you get everything in a pile. Then you are only toasting during the chopping bit. You are less likely to over-toast. I would be too distracted organizing my ingredients to toast at the start. (I like a dark toast, so neither of those seemed too overdone. It would have to be on fire for me to bail on it.) I really like your responses to all the cooking trends! Keep up the great work!

Great! Keep up the good work!

Building the ranch in the sandwich is such a cool concept!

Yummy! Can't wait to try this.

Nice to see you use Bacon bits, I’ve been adding them to sandwiches, potatoes for years, non vegans told me that its weird. ❤

Yum. Yes I will try it. I like soup with my sandwich for dipping in. I'll use tomato soup for the bacon chick Wich.

I love sandwiches and i will give this a try

Ah! I do weekly meal preps because I want to save $$$ and I am a very busy working woman almost everyday. What I do is to separate the carbo (such as bread, rice noodles, and rice) and the mixed fillings. I like to mix veggies, protein (such as beans), and some spices as a filling because they meddle together very well. When it is the time to eat, I just toast a bread (or reheat rice) and take out the bagged mixed filling from my fridge. I just put them together along with my choice of condiments. That's it. Because I prefer separating the carbos and the fillings, I am not a fan of overnight soggy sandwiches and moldy sandwiches. A very hard bread is another story-- I can mix the very hard bread (chopped bite sizes) in this filling prior to my dinner time, so the bread would be a bit soft (and easy on my teeth). :P

They both look amazing ❤❤❤

I think y’all need to try that in a burrito wrap cut in half! A good dipping sauce would be great. That’s really similar to chick fillet’s veggie wraps

I used to make these chopped salads back in the 1980s but, instead of putting them in a sandwich (it never even occurred to me to do that) I would mix in some couscous with oil and lemon dressing. Delicious.

All I got to do is chop chop my stuff and put it on a toasted bun lol. I like it. That should be a new subway type thing lol.

One would think: wow, a great idea, no tomato slices sliding out. Well, now everything is falling out haha :D But the the textures and flavors are for sure more evenly distributed throughout the whole thing!

that looks fantastic

Love your kitchen. Who cleans up the mess? 😊

As someone that isn't a fan of the texture and potential sliminess of vegan deli meat .. I think I'll definitely give this one a try. Well, both actually, but definitely the 1st one too, as it seems like something you could make the night before, leave in a container, and bring to work the next day with the bread separate.

Looks Delicious!! 🤤😋

Yumness. I love me some chopped salads. Lately I’ve been ‘saladizing’ my favorite meals just to see if I can create some new & interesting things & let me tell you! I’ve hit the jackpot. I started with a Loaded Baked Potato Chopped Salad, used seasoned hash brown patties (warm, it’s a nice contrast in a cold salad), chopped them up, fakin bacon, romaine, cabbage, white onion, Fresh Dressing of fresh dill, rosemary, sage, thyme, garlic, black pepper, white pepper, Maldon Sea Salt & ‘cheeze’ (nooch) in a Tahini base, top with chopped chives... dude 🤯 I also just did a Beyond Burger chopped salad... Chef’s 💋 So many possibilities Vegan chopped crab or lobster roll salads are also phenomenal, I make that quite often

Great video ❣️🎁 thank you 🙏

You can scrape off the burnt areas of bread with a knife, do it in the sink.

funny. in brazil we call it American Lettuce

I make a chopped salad. Same thing just without the bread.

I'm not a vegan..but I love your videos ! and can you do a recipe with puffball mushrooms?

Are you from Youngstown!?!? I've been watching you for a while and did not realize that. Loved that Antone's salad before I moved south.

Visiting this channel after many years. I recognise the voice but not the person. Great job buddy!

man this looks so damn good.

I love chopped salads-a little bit of everything and is easy to eat. I'm assuming Monica's comments is spot on.

I just realised those chopped sandwches are essentialyl what we have here, which is called guedille (pronounced ged-eel)

I like this idea. I need to look into getting some vegan meat and cheese. I can't eat lettuce, but I could do coleslaw!

I just made one with broccoli, green onions, banana peppers, tomato, and baby spinach, on toasted sourdough with mayo, olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. It was delicious!

Off-topic, but have you seen Thought Emporium's "Chicken Soup from Chemicals" video? Might be worth tinkering with his recipe. Main difficulty is finding plant-based cysteine; most of the stuff out there is made from feathers/hair.

It reminds me of the texture of a poboy or tuna fish style. Easy to eat.

I eat vegan because I have gall bladder issues and it prevents me from having an attack. But processed food is processed food... Tofurkey definitely has great texture and flavor, but after eating it a couple times, I had another gall bladder attack. I need to keep almost everything homemade.

I’ve probably made this with all kinds of vegan meat before and I’ve chopped up the salads always except the vegan meats so I’m guessing not something new for me personally but overall a nice video and I gotta be honest when you make something, even if it’s done and dusted you make it all the more special !!! Great job!! Btw I’m still waiting on the lovely Monica making something for you to eat like I said before in the last video😅

I like these style videos without the naration. Another great one! Thanks!

I think Chicken bacon ranch usually has avocado in it! Great video mark!

Okay, so all I can say is that this was amazing. I tried the second one but choice to cook some mushrooms instead of chik'n protein and used fresh bok choy instead of lettuce. Oh, and I did add some vegan cheese. Still light and delicious. I used fresh dill and fresh chives. SOOO GOOD!

Very good video - I understand why people are loving the sandwiches this way. It's like a chopped salad vs a regular one. Question - your kitchen is beautifully designed and spotless (hey, at least on camera!) and then you use a pan that is (I assume) in the midst of becoming seasoned and non-stick but currently unappetizing to look at. I believe that your goal is to have a beautifully seasoned pan of one color but in the meantime, could you put the bread in a toaster oven or salamander or cleaner-looking pan? It would help make it more appetizing, as would opting to either scrape the charred bread or make a new one - the fact that you said it wasn't as bad as it appeared tells me that somewhere inside, you knew it was in need of excuse to be considered food. Just make a new one and let us know that you have standards both in the food you are cooking for us to see and for the food you're about to offer your wife!

Definitely trying this. I was hoping to see someone do a vegan version and your video is perfect! I will probably do the vegan chickun bacun ranch and use kraft plant based ranch dressing and add some vegan follow your heart feta cheese along with the veggies you have and some impossible nuggets, maybe a little olive oil and balsalmic vinegar, kind of a mash up of the 2 sandwiches you made, should be yummy!

It has NEVER occurred to me to rehydrate bacon bits! This is blowing my mind 😆

I honestly have a big underbite and space between my lower and upper middle teeth so chopped sandwiches are kinda necessary for me because i cant tear without pulling it to the corners of my mouth... guess that doesn't really matter but yeah, i still make it have texture and taste but chopped is good.

I would add some sautéed mushrooms😊

Like... Make a salad a put it in a sandwich? I guess it's more efficient to chop everything together but honestly I've been chopping individual ingredients and mixing them together before putting them on bread. Doesn't seem like a revolutionary idea.

another take on muffelleta (spelling ?). gonna try it!

When I was a kid in Italy my Nonna used to get the let over salad and put it on the fresh breast rolls. This has been around for decades. 🤷‍♀️. Maybe it depends if you chop your salad up small. Yes it’s delicious but there’s nothing new about it..

Oooohhhhhhh with violife feta, cabbage, and sun dried tomatoes that would be lovely

It's weird how many comments are "you don't eat meat, why eat a meat substitute?"

If you get a butter knife you can scrape the burnt bits off of toast 🙃

Yes!! Youngstown representing!! I miss those monkey salads-looking forward to trying this!

Such a flexible idea👍you can use your knife to scrape the burn off your bread if it's too burnt-fyi😉

When you burn bread just use a knife to scrape off the burnt layer.

Look delicious! 👍👍👍👍👍

Oh man, you forget some pickles! Grillos would be awesome in there.

Looks tasty but I'll probably stick to not chopping my sandwiches since it seems soooo messy.

whole half, yunz really are from the burb of the burgh!

I really have trouble with these kinds of sandwiches just because I hate the mess so much. I don’t want to sit at the table with my family for a meal, take a bite only to have the sandwich disgorge its contents onto my plate, shirt, table, and any cats lurking underfoot. It’s just not pleasant. To be fair, I dislike overstuffed deli sandwiches for the same reason. Maybe I’ve got an abnormally small mouth, but I cannot comfortably fit a massive egg salad sandwich (sorry, vegetarian, not vegan) with lettuce, tomato, and cucumbers on sturdy pumpernickel bread in my mouth to take a bite. If I order from a deli, I always end up scooping 2/3 the filling out and saving it for another sandwich. Have I become that old person who complains about everything now? Gods I hope not. Oh yeah, I’m still fond of Tofurky and buy it now and then. Tofu Pups are still kind of sad in my opinion, but thankfully there’s plenty of decent vegan hot dog brands on the market now.

When you go to the retirement village they vitamize the whole lot still tastes the same 😂

I love tofurkey too honestly. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! My boyfriend and I go to Publix a lot and get the subs there. Only $8.99 for a monster vegan sub with vegan Chao cheese, tofurkey, vegan bacon, whatever toppings … I don’t know if you and your wife have heard, but I believe you’re in Florida so you have Publix too??

Chao is the best.They have a smoked one that he still out like provolone

just use a wrap... while struggle with the 🥖. you can chop the bread and put it in the wrap as well 😂

We scrape off the burned bread with a table knife.

I think my ocd/anxiety wouldn't be able to handle the messy side effects of that sandwich! Lol I'd still try it, but be freaking out every time bits of food drops. 😂

I saw a girl make a vegan chopped sandwich and she sautéed her vegan meats in a bit of oil prior to assembling.

I would just throw the whole situation in my food processor and keep it moving. Feels like way too much effort. To be honest I’d just put the stuff on the bread. Sandwich could be ate.

So you're definitely more plant based now. I remembered watching you and didn't know if you were Vegan or not❤❤❤❤😄

I am going to make a chopped vegan sandwich. This is happening. I'll eat it over a plate and eat whatever falls out with a spoon.

so cool to watch monica go from being what seems like camera shy to an Anton Ego. 🔍

I just made one using onion rings and oh my God I'm dying

It's pretty much a vegan chef's salad on a bun.
