There are those who insist that being vegan is a life filled with compromises – and then there are those who’ve tried the VAVO; our vegan take on the classic Avocado sandwich. Let’s ride the VAVO wave and get down to the business of what makes this humble vegan sandwich tickle your tastebuds. Here’s what we’ll cover:
1. The origin of VAVO
2. What ingredients are in VAVO
3. VAVO calories
4. Who eats VAVO
Let's dig in.
Nobody’s ever walked into their local JOE frustratingly unable to find fruits, veggies or good vibes. Almost everything on the menu is filled to the brim with vital vitamins and the kind of health-kick you’ll actually enjoy being on the receiving end of.
That goes for our sandwiches, too. They’re all packed with fresh produce like ripe tomato, fresh spinach and – of course – deliciously soft avocados. We even crafted a sandwich heroing just the avo, putting the pitted fruit front and center, well worthy of all the attention it was rightfully getting.
The Avocado sandwich was always a popular choice among vegetarians. But in 2022 we decided to take things up a notch. That’s why we kicked off that year’s Veganuary by launching the VAVO – a completely vegan take on the classic Avocado sandwich. It came flying out the gates and hasn’t looked back since.
Well, avocados, obviously. But the VAVO is about much more than just the avos. It’s about the clean-tasting combo of fresh veggies, vegan pesto and our signature crunchy sandwich bread. Sometimes two plus two does equal five – VAVO is living proof.
Speaking of five, here’s what’s in a VAVO.
1. Avocado
2. Tomato
3. Spinach
4. Vegan pesto
5. Crunchy sandwich bread
Easy as that. If you’re not big on gluten, we’ve got you covered. All sandwiches can be made with great tasting gluten free bread, too.
Whether you’re a vegan looking to load up for lunch or an everything-eater looking for that feel-good fullness only a vegan sandwich provides, the VAVO is certain to hit the spot.
Calories in one VAVO
One sandwich has 477 calories.
Healthy fats, fresh veggies and fibrous bread makes the VAVO a perfect option anytime of the day – especially when combined with a juice, shake or even a plant based protein shake.
You probably won’t be surprised to hear that the VAVO is winning just about every popularity contest up for grabs among vegans everywhere. Not only is this a nutritious choice for everyone knee-deep in a plant-based diet, it’s also tasty enough that you’ll forget ever knowing the word ‘compromise’.
Fuel up on the go or sit in for a blissful moment of savory, green goodness – the choice is yours. All we care about is the fact that we can get your tastebuds bouncing whilst sticking to a vegan diet. After all, we probably all could use a little more VAVO in our lives.
