Avocado toast is out, hearty vegan breakfast sandwiches are in. Start your morning off right with one of these recipes.

Vegan Breakfast Sandwich Ingredients

From English muffins to bagels and toast—there are many different types of bread that can be used to make a vegan breakfast sandwich. Once you’ve decided on one, you’ll want to fill it with the basics.

For those after a classic egg-style sandwich, Just and Follow Your Heart both offer vegan eggs that look, cook, and taste similar to chicken-derived eggs.

Make your breakfast sandwiches even heartier by stacking on the plant-based meat. Beyond Meat carries breakfast sausages in two flavors: spicy and original. Plant-based brand Gardein also offers meatless sausage patties.

If you want meltable sliced dairy-free cheese, try Daiya, Miyoko’s Creamery, or Field Roast. For a complete guide to vegan cheese click here.

Depending on the sandwich, you may also want to stock up on hot sauce, ketchup, vegan cream cheese, or even anchovies-free Worcestershire sauce.
