  • 1 tsp coconut aminos

  • ¼  tsp sweet paprika powder
  • ¼ tsp dried marjoram

  • tsp dried rosemary, crushed
  • tsp black pepper (about 5 turns)
  • 1 pinch mustard powder
  • 1 pinch celery seed
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 drops liquid smoke (optional)
Everything else
  • 4 100% whole grain, sprouted, or gluten-free hoagie rolls, toasted or not
  • ¼ cup yellow mustard (or any mustard of choice / 60 g)
  • 2 cups mixed salad greens (95 g)
  • 1 cup dill pickle, sliced (140 g)
  • 1 cup tomato, sliced (180 g)
  • Black pepper to taste
  • ¼ tsp dried oregano
  • 1 medium avocado, sliced (150 g)
  • ½ cup dried cranberries (80 g)

Instructions

Soy curls

  • Whisk all of the soaking liquid ingredients together in a bowl large enough to hold the soy curls. Add the curls and stir to saturate them with the liquid. Let the soy curls soak for 10 minutes, stirring once about halfway through.
  • While your soy curls are soaking, place all of the marinade ingredients into a liquid measuring cup and whisk to combine. Set aside for now.
  • When the 10 minutes are up, immediately drain your curls into a fine mesh strainer or colander (set the bowl aside, you will be using it again shortly) and, using your clean hands, squeeze well to remove as much of the liquid as you can. If you want, you can chop any large chunks into bite-sized pieces at this point.
  • Transfer the curls back to the bowl and pour about half the marinade over top (set the remaining marinade aside for now). Stir well to coat then set aside for a few minutes more to soak up the marinade.
  • While the curls are soaking, heat a skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add the soy curls to the skillet and sauté, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown all over and firm up, about 7-10 minutes.
  • Pour the remaining marinade evenly over your soy curls and cook, while stirring, until nice and hot, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Assemble your sandwich

  • Squirt some mustard on the bottom of your hoagie roll, then layer salad greens, soy curls, pickles, and tomatoes. Season the tomato with black pepper and oregano then add a few slices of avocado and the dried cranberries. Squirt some more mustard on the top and slice your sub in half if you like. Open wide and prepare to fall in love.
