What types of sandwiches/wraps do you enjoy making at home? I usually do turkey sandwiches but was looking for some other fun recipes.
I love when bacon season comes around
Real, fresh tomatoes are a thing of glory.
And man, don't even get me started on seasonal bacon straight from the vine.
That's not a bacon vine, it's a hambush
That's a bovine, but they are divine!
Lookout!
Only the ripest of pigs
When picking your pig from the vine, pay attention to the tail. The curlier the tail, the riper it'll be.
You need to use other senses too... give that pig a good whiff before plucking.
I always give'r a good sniff before leaving the bar.
Nothing beats a slice from a fresh picked Brandywine tomato… with a little salt sprinkled on top.
That John Denver’s full of shit.
There was a guy who used to sell tomatoes at the Dallas farmers market (Lemley I think his name was?) and those were the best damned tomatoes I’ve ever tasted. A borderline religious experience.
Freshly picked from the garden and Still warm from the sun. HOLYYYYYYY
I love just tomato sandwiches on white bread and mayo.
Kenji says that BLT's are just tomato sandwiches with bacon on them.
I made my tomato-hating partner his first tomato sandwich which he reluctantly bit into. The shock that spread over his face was absolutely priceless.
I do too! I mostly eat it with seeded bread nowadays but mayo and tomato sandwiches are my favourite 😍
And lots of pepper
What kind of tomatoes do you use?
Sourdough?
I start off with just regular 12 grain sandwich bread.
Then after 4 weeks, I do a bunch of different types to keep it fresh. Sourdough and marble rye seem to be what I gravitate towards
Yup…….I can eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner….my all time fav sammie!
During mato season I like to keep sliced brioche and Duke's in the house. Lightly toast the bread. Slather with mayo, both sides. Thick slice of tomato, season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Eat hunched over the sink.
I love thick sliced tomato (like two slices from one tomato) and about 3/4 inch of fresh, crunchy lettuce in the center. On potato bread, with mayo, salt and pepper.
Sounds great lol.
I literally travel to America to get Dukes 😂
BLTs are such an a+ sandwich. I can always count on it to be a great sandwich whereever I eat.
BLTs are the perfect combination of warm and cold, crunchy and soft, savory and fresh (from the lettuce), creamy and salty.
There's nothing better in the world, and yes I'll die on this hill.
My grave will be next to yours because I too will die on that hill.
Or just tomato salt and pepper sammy
I didn't grow tomatoes this season (winter is the growing season in the middle east) , but when I do grow tomatoes, my husband binges on my tomatoes in sandwiches, whether it be just tomato and cheese with mayo on the bread and then grilled, or tomato slices on a grilled chicken burger.
I love BLTs with turkey bacon.
I hope to grow them this winter by starting seeds in October.
My best tomato of any season was Aunt Ruby's German Green. They are green when ripe and were delicious. Last season I bought seeds from the same site but the tomatoes turned out to be a red variety. They were still delicious but everyone was exploring for more green tomatoes that season lol.
Just tomato for me
You should try bacon and fried tomato sandwiches!
Thanksgiving "leftover" sandwich with a healthy amount of cranberry sauce.
I also love a good chicken salad (Caesar, Asian-inspired, BBQ, Mexican, Southwest, etc.) wrap. Doesn't matter what kind. All are great. I make the salad chopped well in a bowl and flip the bowl over a big tortilla. It's the easiest way to make a huge wrap.
With the moistmaker?
It’s not MY SANDWICH if there’s no moistmaker.
I came to ask this! 🤣
In the same vein, a healthy dose of Mashed potatoes, stuffing, turkey, and gravy in between rolls on the day after Thanksgiving is the shit I look forward to every single year.
Mayonnaise and salted tomatoes in toasted bread, mmmm
Ever had it w potato bread?🤌
No but now I will!
The mayo has to be Dukes for me.
I like hellmans and kewpie both!
Forget the salt and use pepper.
BLT, turkey sandwich (but only after thanksgiving).
The ole turkey club.
Ohhhhh! With bacon!?! Definitely going on my next turkey sandwich! I need to try this before Thanksgiving lol!
Those were two separate sandwiches, but sometimes bacon on the Thanksgiving sandwich. Always with stuffing and cranberry sauce though.
Cranberry sauce or relish on sandwiches is so underrated.
Agreed! Love the hit of acid, especially on richer sandwiches.
favorite sandwich is
garlic bread bun, rare roast beef, caramelized onion, bitter green (like spinach).
use heavy butter and dont forget sugar in the onion but thats it. no condiments 6 ingredients.
this together is fire. best sandwich ive ever made in my life
BLT or tuna melt
Tuna melts are an absolute favorite in my house. We just had them last night. Whenever we don't know what to make for dinner or don't really want to cook, tuna melt!
Tuna salad made with pickles, celery, red onion, mayo, mustard, garlic powder and lemon pepper between buttered sourdough bread and whichever cheese tickles your fancy. Ugh, never misses!
Another fav is buffalo chicken wraps. Chicken strips with lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion and avocado, buffalo sauce and ranch inside a tortilla.
Pickled red onion is amazing on/with a tuna melt as well.
Using lemon pepper seasoning sounds like an excellent idea, I’m definitely trying that now!
Before food allergies, I loved doing a spicy tuna melt. Tuna salad with spicy mayo, red onion, and diced jalapeños; tomatoes; roasted chilis; and pepper jack cheese on sourdough bread. So good!
One of the great sorrows of my life is that my dear husband hates tuna 😭
Tuna melts are a go-to whenever he's not home haha
Tuna melts and buffalo chicken wraps are both incredible! I think tuna sandwiches get a lot of unfair hate.
Mix mayo with some garlic, pepper, onion powder, and Worcestershire
Spread on both pieces of a brioche bun. Add deli roast beef and a slice of havarti or provolone. If you have them- add caramelized onions
Wrap in tinfoil and bake in oven til melty, 10-15
Dip in prepared au jus. My kids go bananas for these
Trying thissssss
This sounds lit. I do love me a good French dip
Oh yeah, this is so close to my top pick it's ridiculous. Soooo good.
A good old Bombay sandwich that you get on the streets of Mumbai. There is one seller at every corner and it's extremely basic to make. Put butter and then green chutney on bread slices. Add tomato, cucumber, onion, beetroot, boiled potato, and green bell pepper slices. Season it and grill it. Always a classic in my home
I also like adding paneer tikka to it sometimes and some sauces to it that Subway offers to try replicate the paneer tikka Subway they have in India except they don't add beetroot or potato
Sweet mama lord that sounds good!
It's quite simple and can be made in 10 minutes if you have boiled potato and chutney ready in the fridge which we always have otherwise it takes longer to boil and cool down the potatoes. You can of course skip it.
People really like line up for it atsmall stalls to eat them. It's extremely basic but tasty you can always add cheese to it too
Are you talking about green chutney? It's pretty much part of our stable diet. There are different types of chutney plain old coriander chutney, mint chutney, raw mango chutney, guava chutney, chilli chutney but coriander or mint one is the one that's used the most in street food. The bases of all chutneys are the same as a coriander chutney and then you add other main ingredients depending on what you want. Chilli chutney is made differently though you use the less spicy kind of chillies lemon juice and sugar for it.
Coriander chutney is always present in our fridge ready to use
Tuna with mayo, chopped up celery, chopped up green onion, chopped up dill pickle (i like Claussen dill slices), fresh dill (you have to pick out the florets, not the stems), fresh squeezed lemon juice. SO GOOD. I like it on a toasted baguette or toasted sour dough bread. Also good with sharp cheddar cheese & sliced tomato and slap that sucker into a pan with a bunch of canola oil/butter/lite margarine/whatever you like, press it down with another heavy frying pan, then flip, and enjoy an awesome tuna melt.
Egg salad: a dash of butter or lite margarine; a bit of mayo; dijon mustard; salt & pepper; chopped up celery, with lettuce & tomato on egg bread
Fresh roast turkey, lettuce tomato and fresh homemade cranberry sauce and mayo, on sour dough toast (post-T'giving, basically!)
Fresh roast (or cut into strips and quick-sauteed with salt and pepper) chicken breast (Mary's heirloom chicken is pretty much the only one that still is good to eat), maple bacon, farmstand tomatoes, salt & pepper, lettuce, and mayo on sour dough toast
Cold meat loaf, lettuce & tomato, dijon mustard, on fresh egg bread or challah
Dill and green onion are sooo good in tuna salad.
If you like pickled red onion, it also goes really well with mayo-based tuna sandwiches (especially if you’re also putting a few slices of avocado on the sandwich).
Cold meatloaf is a statement, but I might have to try that.
I totally forgot the most important part: also, SHARP CHEDDAR CHEESE!!! A must.
Cold meatloaf, deli mustard and kosher dills on ANY bread is my favourite sandwich. Followed by an Italian sub all dressed with extra hot giardiniera.
I do “tuna salad” just like that with chickpeas. I don’t call it tuna bc it’s not, and it doesn’t taste like it, but it’s delicious
I've been watching videos on making an egg salad sandwich that you would find in Japan. It's so fluffy and delicious!
Nothing fancy, but I really like Mediterranean inspired wraps. Tzatziki, spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, feta, and chicken. It’s simple but really yummy. I like to use spinach wraps but any wrap works.
Mackerel (warm smoked), tomato, pickled peppers and aioli on a soft white roll always works for me.
Edit; added warm smoked to the mackerel
Fresh or canned mackerel, and if the latter, is there a brand you like?
Smoked mackerel fillet, that you can find in lots of western European stores or markets.
Canned, fresh and fried, or what kind of mackerel? What kind of pickled peppers… Jalapeños? Pepper and pepperoncini? Aioli like mayo?
I love me a good egg salad sandwich:) And when I am looking for something a bit more luxurious lox is delicious!! The key ingredient is good rye bread and maybe some pickled onions as well.
Liverwurst on dark rye with mustard and a slice of red onion, half-sour pickle on the side.
My Oma and Opa owned a German deli in NY and this was such a staple of the sandwich tray. But we used light caraway rye and the pickle goes on the sandwich.
I love liverwurst and butter on soft wheat. Mmmmmm
I’m British, but love a good PB&J. The Americans got that right. Second up is more British, a marmite and cheese sandwich.
I was going to post PB&J but figured it would be down voted. PB&J is my go to sandwich
Grape jelly…yummmm
Me too I love PBJ. Crunchy peanut butter. Grape or strawberry Jam.
You misspelled Vegemite... Love, Australia
I’ve tried Vegemite and it isn’t bad but I prefer Marmite. Grew up with it!
Grated cheese with thinly sliced onion on buttered white bread with potato chips /crisps on the side . Coronation chicken sandwiches
what kind of cheese?
old cheddar , it has to be grated , a dash of hot mustard and salt and pepper is also a good addition .
Leftover roasted pork shoulder slices on a French roll sprinkled with salt and slathered with spicy sweet mustard…heat it just a little bit in the microwave…
Fresh roasted turkey leftovers on Dave’s killer bread, with lots of mayo and homemade cranberry sauce.
From a closed French bakery: Fresh roast turkey breast sliced on a brioche bun with mango chutney—out of this world good.
A simple jambon beurre, maybe with cornichons if I’m feeling fancy. Warm baguette, proper salted butter with crystals of sea salt etc etc
Oh snap. You win.
Burger with sautéed mushrooms and caramelized onion with blue cheese crumbles, toasted bun and my burger sauce (mayo, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce) alternatively a simple cheese burger with pickles, finely chopped onions and ketchup.
Keep it simple, turkey and dukes mayo with some salt and pepper with lettuce on a delicious piece of chewy sourdough, hardy baguette or a good white bread. Extra points with Avocado slices and arugula/sprouts or other such combination. Oil and vinegar if on a sub roll is mandatory.
DUKES is the Best 👌
Cuban
Tomato and mayo is my favorite, too. I add some lettuce if I'm feeling fancy, but a big slice of salted tomato is worth waiting for.That is my summer fave.
edit: Winter fave is roasted turkey breast, lettuce and mayo. yum.
Either a Croque Monsieur or a Monte Cristo!
Do you make them at home? I've never been able to fry them up right. OMG I love a monte cristo - the ham, the melty cheese, the sweetness from the jam & sugar.
This is really boring, but I love it anyways....just a lettuce sandwich. Get two slices of really fresh bread, lather on the mayo, then pile on a ton of lettuce. So nice and crunchy! But also very light in the stomach.
Black pudding buttie
I have a slice of back pudding and a fried egg (with ketchup) on a soft white roll every Saturday for 'brunch'. Deeeeelicious!
Sub the ketchup for brown sauce and I’m with you there.
Chicken salad with cranberry sauce.
Try it on a cinnamon raisin bagel 🥯
I love a simple turkey sandwich! Just bread, pepperjack and a couple of slices of turkey. Now when my husband and I make “fancy sandwiches,” we get croissants, lettuce, red onion, tomatoes, avocados, pickled jalapeños, and ham to go with the turkey and pepperjack. I love Hellman’s on my sandwich, he uses Miracle Whip. Sometimes I add a swipe of horseradish for an extra kick! Needless to say, my sandwich is mostly vegetables with a couple slices of turkey and of course pepperjack!
Turkey sandwiches never miss! That sounds delicious :) I’ve never thought of using horseradish in mine but now I gotta try it
Probably whole wheat sourdough with sweet potato, goat cheese, pesto, arugula, and pickled onions. Unless you count burritos.
how do you prepare the sweet potato?
I usually just rinse it and put it in th oven at 350 F. Give it a spritz or water once or twice in the cooking process so the skin doesn't dry out.
Interesting! I’ve never heard of sweet potato inside of a sandwich but I’m sure it’s delicious especially with the pesto and goat cheese.
Best sandwich ever, sliced cucumber , sliced tomato, sliced tasty cheese like a good cheddar and mayo , lots of salt and black pepper
Muffulettas. I don't make them often at home, but it's my favorite.
Love muffulettas but always seemed like it would be a $50 sandwich at home haha. Plus finding the right bread…
Do you have a go-to baseline recipe?
Try these. I have to make the bread because I can't find it where I live now. For the life of me, I haven't been able to replicate true NOLA po' boy rolls.

Thank you!!!
Hahaha - they are pricey to make but GODDAMN was that good! I had them in Texas three decades ago and had craved them since so I got all the stuff earlier this year and did it. It was worth it and I'm doing it again soon.
Chicken, bacon, cheddar or gruyere, lots of mustard. Maybe done avocado and/or red onion.
Pastrami seasoned turkey Rubens with homemade sauerkraut on rye bread pressed in an iron skillet.
Grilled cheese (warm) with ham or turkey, lightly sliced tomato that is salted and peppered. So yummy. (Air fryer is best)
Panini (warm) with chicken cutlet, pesto, red onion, fresh mozzarella (also delish in pillsbury croissant sheets)
Turkey Rachel (warm) - turkey, swiss, coleslaw, and Russian dressing --these are great sandwiches, but I love them as a stuffed pretzel or in pillsbury croissant sheets
Gobbler (warm) - carved turkey soaked in gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and mayo. My brothers like to add mashed potatoes, too. I eat these all year.
Meatball Sammies (warm) - meatballs with gravy (tomato sauce) on toasted hoagie roll with potato chips constantly added to sustain the crunch and non-soggy factor.
Pork or Roast Beast Sammie (warm) - meat soaked in gravy/ au jus, provolone, toasted roll, and extra gravy au jus for dipping
My absolute favorite sandwich is a BLT on white toast with a shit-ton of crispy bacon, lettuce, tomato that is lightly salted & peppered, and extra mayo
PB & Fluff on white bread
A Monte Cristo. So freaking good.
Yes! I make these.
Caprese on fresh baguette. I could eat that any day - fresh mozzarella, tomato slices, fresh basil. Drizzle some olive oil and fig balsamic glaze. Delicious!
Honey ham (my fav), perhaps another deli meat, roasted red peppers, some Calabrian spread or tapenade or pesto, spinach or lettuce, pickles, garlic mayo, yellow mustard (my fav), an old sharp cheese, panini pressed.
Conversely i make a phenomenal tuna salad so a tuna melt is a tasty one too
Beef schnitzel (uncrumbed) / thin quick cook steak/stir fry marinated in bbq sauce, ketchup, clove or two of garlic & and little bit of oil to loosen it up. Let sit for at least 30 mins before cooking. Serve in a pita wrap with lettuce, cheese, red onion, sliced tomato, cucumber & mayo or tzatziki.
Mesquite smoked turkey with sharp cheddar cheese (or feta, or melted brie if i have it), spinach, crispy onions. On an onion bun if you're willing to double down on them! I usually put avocado lime ranch on it but really anything will work. Does really well as a wrap or sandwich.
Panini made with pulled chicken, mozzarella, caramelized onion, tomato, fresh basil, and chipotle mayo on focaccia.
prosciutto, fresh mozz, tomato & basil. With pesto or balsamic glaze, or both.
Chicken salad: shredded lemon pepper chicken breast, celery, mayonnaise, roasted almonds, really fresh red grapes and a squeeze of fresh lemon on thick, toasted wheat bread and a slice of either provolone or pepper Jack
tomato sandwich. as soon as that garden gets going it’s all i eat day and nught
Hot pastrami on rye with spicy mustard.
French baguette, mozz, red onion, cherry peppers, arugula, olive oil, balsamic glaze drizzle.
Roast beef, cheddar and horseradish. I added sliced tomatoes and red onion when I made this for lunch recently. Yum!
Shrimp Po’Boy in NOLA.
Salmon cakes, lettuce, wrap. The salmon cakes are well seasoned (made by me). I don't add mustard or hot sauce, as the great flavor thing happens when you can let the cakes sing.
How do you make salmon cakes?
Grilled cheese with orange marmalade. Currently pregnant, lol.
Fried bologna sammich with bbq chips crushed up
BLT, Torta, Bahn Mi. Probably in that order.
What’s on a Torta? I just recently discovered Bahn Mi and I’m obsessed.
It varies, but usually your standard sandwich toppings (Let Tom On) with refried beans and your meat of choice. Avocado, jalapeno, poblanos, pickles, etc are all common additions. Served cold, hot, or pressed. It's either on a bolillo, which is kinda life a small, (American) football-shaped baguette or a telera roll, which is a flat, very broad, soft bun.
Torta:
A Mexican torta is a sandwich made with freshly baked soft bread bolillo roll, a meat and a number of toppings including avocado, refried beans, mayonnaise, cheese, onions, tomatoes, pickled jalapeños, shredded lettuce.
That sounds amazing.
T&T / Toast n' Tomato
Toast (or fried bread), sliced tomato, mayo on one side, butter on the other, liberal salt and pepper.
California chipotle chicken wrap in a massive white tortilla with homemade chipotle sour cream, lime/cilantro marinated grilled chicken, fresh ripe tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, Monterrey Jack, and tons of avocado. Add in a heap of fresh sunflower sprouts and you’re golden.
Sandwich: Capocollo, soppressata, mortadella, provolone cheese, shredded lettuce, tomato, onion, pappadew peppers, oil and vinegar or hot honey on Italian bread
Wrap: Nutella, strawberry, banana on lavish bread.
Right now it's a very simple salami and cheddar on sourdough with mustard
Smoked turkey sliced thin, strong white cheddar, with honey mustard on challah, and grilled.
fish finger
My all time favourite is bacon, Red Leicester and coleslaw double decker on toasted granary. Nom nom
i am a simple man, but turkey or chicken breast sandwiches are my favorite cold ones, but if i want hot ones, chicken philly cheese steaks or grilled cheese sandwiches are lovely.
Thin sliced steak ,red onion, spinach leaves, blue cheese crumbles and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar on top of a piece of garlic toast.
Caprese sandwich. Toasted baguette, fresh sliced tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, LOTS of fresh basil, good olive oil, flaky sea salt and black pepper.
Maple honey ham, Vermont cheddar, sauteed cinnamon apples on thick cut sourdough grilled with butter and finished in the pan with real maple syrup that turns the bread into crunchy happiness...
Or, rare roast beef with cream cheese and pepper jelly on a baguette.
A Rueben. It’s my favorite sandwhich hands down. When it’s done truly well, I think it’s the best sandwhich out there. Second place goes to a bbq pork bahn mi.
My favorite sandwich is an ice cream sandwich.
Good ole hot dogs.
If I'm feeling fancy, a caprese. A normal sandwich would be turkey, mayo, swiss, red onion, and spinach, with black pepper.
I've got two that are in constant rotation -
Pesto/Hard Boiled egg on a baguette with some Red Chili pepper flakes
Mediterranean hummus sandwich - current version is everything bagel, lemon garlic hummus, cucumbers, roasted bell peppers, sprouts and sheep cheese.
If I have time and feeling fancy, my favorite comfort sandwich is a french onion soup sandwich - basically a gruyere grilled cheese on sourdough bread with caramelized onions.
I also love a good pesto and egg sandwich! I love to do a fried egg, turkey, pesto, some microgreens and cheese with a lot of chili flakes.
Johnsonville Brats split, on butter toast and strawberry jam.
Maybe not favorite of all time, but favorite for a daily lunch:
Get a bagged salad kit and some leftover grilled chicken, make the salad and shake it with the chicken, then throw alllllll that into a tortilla to make a super flavorful, filling wrap.
For this I usually go for some kind of Asian-inspired salad, but honestly it’ll work with any bagged salad kit you can think of! If I’m feeling particularly hungry I’ll add a layer of hummus to the tortilla, it also helps to adhere the fixings a bit more.
I love grilled sharp cheddar with apple butter in it too!
Shawarma/doner/donair
Tomato and red onion sandwich (both sliced thin), salt and pepper on good white bread of your choice, salt and pepper.
Whenever I go home my mom makes me a grilled cheese with sourdough, buttered and sprinkled with garlic salt, Velveeta, and packaged sliced ham. I know it sounds low, but man that's home to me.
Smoked chicken bacon salad.
My husband will smoke a whole chicken for most of the afternoon, shred all the meat, add some smoked/chopped bacon (or baked chopped bacon) and mix it up with Mayo, chopped dill pickle, and chopped fresh jalapeños (and fresh habaneros when we have some ready for picking)…
Put that on a wrap or even better… fresh bread (which my husband also makes). Good LAWD
Ham, tomato, mustard, Mayo, and spring onions on granary bread.
Or, if I'm feeling particularly "sod it, I cannot be arsed", dairylea with salt and vinegar crisps on Warbies toastie loaf. I do not regret the latter sammich filling.
I do one in a fresh, still slightly warm Baguette that is;
Fresh warm Baguette, sliced length ways and generously buttered, a thin layer of Dijon mustard on one side of the buttered baguette, shredded fridge cold iceberg lettuce that’s been tossed in a little olive oil and cider vinegar, slices of tomato that have been salted with sea salt, thinly sliced honey roasted ham, thin slices of red onion that I’ve submerged in cold water to take some of the raw intensity off the flavour and a thin layer of mayonnaise on the other side of the buttered baguette.
Sometimes, if I fancy a little bit more of a crunch, I’ll throw some crisps in there too (chips for my American cousins)
But I generally use that as the base, and then will add things in as/when I fancy them, like some sliced hard boiled eggs is great, sometimes I really crave something pickled so might swap out the onions for pickled red onions or maybe some sauerkraut etc. but the base idea remains the same
My gutbuster is either chicken or turkey with potato salad, crispy bacon bits, lettuce and lots of very thinly sliced red onion that’s been lightly salted for a few minutes
I love giada de laurentiis chicken burgers recipe i make them quite a bit at home, chicken shawarma recipe from a channel on YouTube which is authentic is also my go to quite a bit.
Do you have a link for the shawarma? Always looking to mix things up at home.
I like ham and cheese wraps.
I make a bun with roast beef, dried tomatoes and shaved cheese (parmeziano)
Chickpea pan bagnat
Tuna, peppers, pickled paprika cucumber and mayo
Salmon, cucumber baguette
Prawns, seafood sauce with a sprinkle of chilli and lettuce with jalapeños
Cream cheese and jam
Bhaji and curried coleslaw
Southern fried chicken, Mayo wrap
Mozzarella and jalapenos
Bacon, mushroom and plum tomatoes with black pepper Bap
Freshly sliced ham, freshly sliced Swiss cheese, spicy truffle mayo, heirloom tomato, CRISP lettuce, on a preferably fresh bagel with a sunny side up egg to dip it in
Bacon and egg brekky sandwich.
I love a classic egg and mayo, or an elaborate sabich
Tuna salad variations. I use pickled jalapeno instead of celery and tajin sometimes to mix it up.
Grilled ham and cheese sandwich with miracle whip. It's so good
I don't make fancy sandwiches outside of a PB&J or grilled cheese, so I've made very little in this sense. The one sandwich I did try to make was a chicken parm grilled cheese, which your basic grilled cheese, but with fried chicken, some tomato sauce, mozz on both sides, and then make it like a grilled cheese in the pan so the bread gets crunchy/crispy. Made this for a super bowl one year and there were no leftovers. It was SOO good.
An indian sandwich called Dahi Toast or Bombay Sandwich.
Reuben for sure!
I love a loaded Italian style sandwich, usually just toss thinly shaved, crispy iceberg and red onion with a homemade Italian dressing. I go turkey and ham, something mild like provolone, a bunch of chopped calabrese peppers, salted tomatoes and homemade mayo on a hoagie roll.
BLT with a little herb mayo is fire 🔥
Grilled cheese with onions, jalapeños, mayo, mustard, and hot sauce
I love a good classic turkey and cheddar, on an everything seasoned bagel or an onion bun.
Vietnamese summer/salad rolls, without the noodles. Protein, salad, herbs, lettuce, sometimes pickled carrots and daikon, with a hoisin, peanut, fish sauce dip. A quick way to eat my salad.
On the best quality baguette I can find: brush both halves with evoo and salt and pepper then fill with grilled chicken slices (marinated in garlic and mild spice), ripe tomato slices, mint and kewpie spicy mayo. I love this because apart from the bread needing to be freshly acquired/baked it's a pretty quick/pantry staple sandwich to pull together.
My other favourite would be a leftover Japanese curry (slightly warm) and potato salad sandwich. Combination works surprisingly well!
They call them burritos on my end. A sausage egg burrito from Mr. Taco used to be my jam. Beans and hash browns were involved. And they had this almost too spicy green salsa at a salsa bar.
That and their chile verde. Tender tender pork mixed with I'm guessing tomatillos and green chiles. Potatoes and cilantro and spices were in the mix.
I try to replicate these things. But I never come close to Mr. Taco.
And then it changed hands. The world now suffers.
BLT's are my recent obsession! Yummy!
"fish wrap" = sardines, capers, romaine, feta, olive oil in a whole wheat tortilla
For 8ish weeks every year, when they’re in season, I almost exclusively eat bacon and tomato sandwiches.
