Slice the tomato and red onion thinly and set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the vegan bologna slices to the skillet. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.
Remove the bologna slices and set aside. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet.
Place the slices of vegan bread in the skillet and toast for 1-2 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
In a small bowl, mix together the vegan mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Spread this mixture on one side of each toasted bread slice.
Assemble the sandwich by layering lettuce, fried vegan bologna slices, tomato slices, red onion rings, and pickle slices on one piece of bread.
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the layers for extra flavor.
Top with another slice of bread, spread side down, to complete the sandwich.
Press gently and slice in half if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
