Vegan Reuben Sandwich with Marinated Bean Curd
Recipe by Munchies
A plant‑based take on the classic Reuben sandwich using tofu (bean curd) sheets marinated in a smoky‑umami broth, homemade Russian‑style dressing, sauerkraut, pickles and melted vegan cheese on sturdy rye bread. The broth‑infused tofu mimics the texture and flavor of pastrami, while the tangy dressing adds the signature punch.
