Tofurky Hoagies

The winter season calls for savory items, carbs, and hearty eats—or all of the above if possible.

You see, “Junk Food” is my middle name, so I couldn’t help but pair two awesome recipes to make the ultimate comfort food dish! This hoagie and wedge combo hits the spot in more ways than one, and it was super easy and fun to make. Warm yourself up with this delectable delight and enjoy!
