There’s no shortage of great vegan options available at Mendocino Farms, where you can get hearty sandwiches and fresh salads without harming animals.

In addition to the year-round staples, the chain often features seasonal specials like the Unreal Reuben and the Lemongrass Spring Roll Salad.

Here are the vegan options at Mendocino Farms:

Sandwiches

• Mrs. Goldfarb’s Unreal Reuben: This Reuben comes stacked with vegan corned beef from Mrs. Goldfarb’s Unreal Deli, apple and celery root slaw, pickles, and smoky Thousand Island dressing on rye bread. To make it vegan, order it with no cheese or sub with vegan cheese. (It’s available until February 10.)
• Mendo’s Smokehouse Tempeh Sandwich: This toasted sandwich with BBQ house-smoked organic tempeh, mustard pickle slaw, tomatoes, pickled red onions, and vegan aioli on ciabatta is already vegan without any substitutions.
• Vegan Banh Mi: A Vietnamese classic, it comes with organic marinated and baked tofu, vegan aioli, sweet chili sauce, housemade pickled daikon and carrots, cucumbers, jalapeños, and cilantro on panini-pressed ciabatta.

Salads

• Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada: This hearty salad consists of chopped romaine, curly kale, quinoa and millet, housemade “superfood krunchies,” red onions, cilantro, grape tomatoes, avocado, and black bean, roasted corn, and jícama succotash, topped with a chipotle vinaigrette. Make it vegan by requesting no Cotija cheese.
• Mama Chen’s Chinese Chicken Salad: This crunchy salad comes with napa cabbage, kale slaw, carrots, bean sprouts, baby spinach, chopped romaine, scallions, and toasted cashews, with a miso-mustard sesame vinaigrette.
