http://notesfromtheveganfeastkitchen has good recipes for bacon subs made from tofu which are quick and easy.Also have good cheese sub recipes.This is Bryanna Clark Grogan's site.She is a vegan genius!
The Sanitarium faux bacon and the tofu subs fill that smoky, salty taste craving really well.

Did you know that quinoa is a complete protein! I hadn't realised until a naturopath told me. Its good for vegetaians and its gluten free. Only takes minutes to prepare.
My most favourite discovery is that it makes a fantastic patty by mixing half falafel and half polenta then put spoonfuls into a pan and fry.

Vegetarians do not need to combine proteins to get complete protein, that is a myth that has been around since the 70s and Frances Moore Lappe who was the person that originated that myth has acknowledged she was wrong.
Too much protein is dangerous anyway and vegetarians get plenty of protein on their diet.Quinoa is good though.Such a shame so many naturopaths, dietitians etc need to do some reseach and get up to date.

The Veggie Burger formula
Ingredients:
1pound can of beans, drained and rinsed, or 1.5 cups cooked beans (suggestions: your favorite bean!)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups diced veggies (suggestions: carrots, celery, mushrooms, chopped spinach, chopped kale, corn, chopped artichokes, zucchini, squash, sweet potato)
2 teaspoons + 2 tablespoons oil for frying (suggestions: olive, coconut, grapeseed)
3 tablespoons liquid flavor (mix and match suggestions: mustard, ketchup, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, vegan worcestershire, buffalo sauce, balsamic vinegar, salsa, pasta sauce, marsala, water)
4 teaspoons spice (we recommend combining at least two: smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, italian seasoning, poultry seasoning, montreal steak seasoning, black pepper, cayenne pepper, fennel, oregano, curry powder)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (omit or reduce if your liquid or spices contain salt)
1 cup dry base ingredient (suggestions: buckwheat, unsweetened protein, bread crumbs, cornmeal, oatmeal)
1/2 cup texture ingredient (suggestions: chopped walnuts, olives, avocado, sundried tomatoes, leftover cooked rice/quinoa/bulgur, parsley, cilantro, basil)
Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the onion, veggies, and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes.
Transfer to a food processor and pulse with beans, liquid flavor, spice, salt until combined but still chunky. Pulse in the dry base and texture ingredient.
Form into golf ball size balls and flatten into patties.
Heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat. Fry patties 2-3 minutes per side until browned and heated through.

janny, the highest sources of vegetarian non-dairy calcium come from herbs like sage, parsley and thyme and from seeds such as sesame, so Tahine would be great, but also you could make a pesto with the above mentioned herbs in it.

bumping for gizmodaisy45 who is looking for hummus recipes.Page 5 of this thread has a Pumpkin and Peanut hummus recipe.

Jamie Oliver has a simple hummus recipe.

To make it simpler, buy a couple of tins of chickpeas rather than cooking them from scratch.
