Chef Nancy Berkoff wrote a Vegetarian Journal article on Fast Sandwich Spreads. Nancy says, “The sandwich fillings in this article do not need to just nestle in between two slices of bread or roll around in a tortilla. Think about packing a container of any of the fillings and dipping or dunking breadsticks; pretzels; wedges of apples or pears; carrot, celery, or jicama sticks; or baked chips into them. If you would like to use any of the fillings as dips, they can be thinned with a small amount of vegan mayonnaise or vegan sour cream.” See: https://www.vrg.org/journal/vj2008issue3/2008_issue3_vegan_tips.php
