Instructions
Begin by preparing the vegan chicken substitute. If using seitan, slice it into thin pieces. If using tempeh, cut it into thin strips or small cubes.
In a medium bowl, combine the vegan mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, chopped celery, chopped red onion, and chopped fresh dill. Season with salt and pepper, stirring until well mixed.
Add the sliced vegan chicken substitute to the mayonnaise mixture and stir to coat the pieces evenly. Ensure that the vegan chicken is well incorporated and covered in the mayo dressing.
Toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster or on a pan until they are crispy and golden brown.
Assemble the sandwiches by laying a lettuce leaf on two of the toasted bread slices. Evenly distribute the vegan chicken mayo mixture onto the lettuce.
Add slices of tomato on top of the vegan chicken mayo mixture. Top with the remaining slices of toasted bread.
Cut the sandwiches in half or quarters if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious vegan chicken mayo sandwiches!
