Meatless Monday is a Tucson Foodie feature highlighting a great, local meat-free meal every Monday.

The new kid on the block August Rhodes Market features a wide range of artisanal sandwiches on their house-baked bread.

Listed at the top of the vegan menu, the Eggplant Sandwich features a plethora of savory Mediterranean ingredients in a crusty baguette.

Tender, savory eggplant is complemented with sweet roasted red bell pepper, smooth hummus, tart pepperoncini, meaty Kalamata olives, and crisp romaine lettuce.

If you’re not feeling so Mediterranean, check out August Rhodes Market’s three other vegan sandwiches:

  • Rst. Cauliflower ($11) – focaccia, pickled turnips, black tahini, arugula
  • Tofu Banh Mi ($9) – baguette, pickles, cilantro, jalapeño, vegan mayo, cucumber
  • Vegan BLT ($9) – sourdough, tofu, romaine, tomato, vegan aioli

August Rhodes Market is located at 3073 N. Campbell Ave. Keep up with August Rhodes Market on Instagram. Tried the Eggplant Sandwich? Post it on social and tag us!
