Step 1: Pick a Sandwich

Although meatless sandwich options are limited on the Jersey Mike’s vegan menu, the combinations can be endless! All you have to do is pick a sandwich out of the two options available and prepare your next meal. The two plant-based subs at Jersey Mike’s are:

Hot Sub: #64 Grilled Portabella Mushroom and Swiss (without the Swiss)

As a meatless option for vegans, this hot sub is a perfect blend of rich flavors if you hold the cheese. Besides the Swiss, there are green bell peppers, portabella mushrooms, grilled onions, and a dressing of olive oil blend.

Cold Sub: #14 The Veggie (without the Cheese)

This one is all veggie sandwiches with cheese, but you can ask them to hold the cheese and make this veggie sandwich a vegan sub. With tomato slices, lettuce, green bell pepper, onion, oregano, salt, red wine vinegar, and olive oil blend, the cold sub is crunchy and light.

Once you’ve decided which sub to eat for your next meal, it’s time to pick a bread or wrap to make it more nutritional.

Step 2: Pick Your Bread or Wrap

Jersey Mike’s website says that they have five bread options. Out of those five, three are available for all-veggie subs.

• White Bread (with Honey)
• Wheat Bread
• Seeded Italian Bread

Wheat and Seeded Italian are 100% vegan options, so you can freely order them for your hot or cold sub. As for the White Bread, it is vegan except for the addition of honey. As for the wraps, here are the available options:

• White Wrap
• Wheat Wrap
• Garlic Herb Wrap
• Tomato Basil Wrap
• Spinach Herb Wrap

Step 3: Pick a Cold or Hot Topping

After picking a bread, it’s time to select the toppings for your sub. If you go with Grilled Portabella Mushroom and Swiss, you will have the following toppings available:

• Portabella Mushrooms
• Red or Green Pepper Strips
• Grilled Onions

You can ask them to remove the cheese so it won’t sabotage your vegan sub.

For the cold sub (the more popular of the two options), you have many toppings available to make the sandwich crunchier and healthier.

• Green Bell Pepper
• Lettuce
• Onions
• Avocado
• Tomatoes
• Cherry Pepper Relish
• Salt
• Oregano
• Jalapeño Peppers
• Banana Peppers
• Dill Pickles

This one comes with cheese, too, so you can ask them not to add it while making the sandwich.

Olive oil blend is part of both types of vegan sandwiches, and red wine vinegar is added to the cold sub, #14, The Veggie. If you want to add or remove some of these sauces, feel free to choose from the vegan options.
