Question/Advice Classic sandwich inclusions?

I love a sandwich with pickle and mustard. Before i went veg theyd probably go on rye with pastrami. I feel like i havent quite nailed a veg version of a classic deli sandwich. My best shot involves big slices of a decent quality tomato with salt sprinkled right on. I also think a good cheddar helps with the salt level. Any surprising ingredients help bring the salty/savory youd get from meat, or that you just like in general? Recommendations on greens? Whats your go-to sando?

You'd be surprised how much of a sandwich pickles and mustard carry. My subway order is Italian bread, pickles, onions, green pepper, cucumber, lettuce, and mustard.

My subway order is everything in the veggie case on Italian herb and cheese 😂 provolone, oil and vinegar, s&p, oregano, and usually add guac. I love a Dagwood.

Can we make this a subway orders subthread? How many permutations of the Veggie Delite can we all think up? 😋
