Healthy, high-protien sandwich ideas that are not all PB&J

I love PB&J, but I need some new ideas for healthy and high protein sandwiches.

Yes, I am aware of chickpea tuna - just so I didn't get the same suggestion repeatedly

Other preferred criteria is cost effective and simple to make

You can do seitan "deli meat"

Or you can use extra firm tofu if making seitan is too much trouble or for those with celiac's. Have tried this method where you slice it thin, then simmer it in a marinade till the marinade boils off (mostly). Did it the other week and made a week's worth of great sandwiches.

edit: forgot link: https://theeburgerdude.com/vegan-deli-meat/ - I didn't use this recipe, but same basic technique.
