Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 2 9 oz packages Gardein vegan beefless tips, thawed*
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup dehydrated onions
  • 1 tablespoon No Beef Better than Bouillon (see note)
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 bay leaf
  • 6 French rolls or hoagie buns
  • 12 slices vegan cheese (see note)
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat in a large nonstick skillet. Place the vegan beefless tips in the skillet and brown on all sides, a few minutes per side.
  • In a bowl, combine 1 tablespoon olive oil, soy sauce, water, flour, onions, No Beef Bouillon, and dried thyme. Stir to combine. Pour this over the cooked beefless tips. Top with a bay leaf.
  • Place the lid on the skillet and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or so. Use a spatula to divide the beefless pieces into smaller pieces. You can do this directly in the skillet or you can transfer them to a cutting board.
  • When ready to serve, heat your oven to 350°F and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Remove the beefless tips and transfer the sauce to a bowl for dipping.
  • Split the hoagie buns and place the bottoms on your prepared pan. Top each bottom with vegan beef followed by 2 slices of vegan cheese. Bake for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
  • Place the top side of the bun on each sandwich. Serve with reserved au jus.

Notes

I use Gardein Beefless Tips. Feel free to sub mushrooms.
Bouillon: I used the No Beef Better than Bouillon (ordered from Amazon), but you can substitute Better Than Bouillon Vegetarian Base and add a teaspoon or two of Vegan Worcestershire Sauce.
There are several vegan cheese slices these days. I use Field Roast Creamy Original Chao Slices or Follow Your Heart Provolone Slices.
