Peas With Mint Seitan Sandwich

8 oz seitan, sliced (about ¼-inch thick for perfect texture)

1 cup peas (fresh or frozen both work great)

2 tbsp fresh mint leaves, chopped (fresh is essential for bright flavor)

1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (brightens and ties everything together)

½ tsp garlic powder (adds savory depth)

Salt and pepper to taste

4 whole grain sandwich buns (sturdy ones hold filling best)

¼ cup vegan mayonnaise (creates perfect creamy base)

1 cup alfalfa sprouts (adds gorgeous crunch and café appeal)

Heat skillet over medium heat and sauté seitan slices until beautifully golden brown (3-4 minutes per side).
Add peas, chopped mint, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook 5 minutes until peas are tender and bright green.
Toast sandwich buns until golden brown and slightly crispy for perfect texture contrast.
Spread vegan mayonnaise generously on both sides of each toasted bun.
Divide seitan and pea mixture among bottom bun halves, ensuring each gets plenty of that gorgeous green filling.
Top each sandwich with generous handful of alfalfa sprouts for fresh texture and visual appeal.
Crown with top buns and serve while filling is warm for perfect hot-cold contrast.
