What are your favorite simple sandwich recipes?

[nowIamone]

It's hard to beat Italian Salami, a hard smoky provolone, crusty french bread (must leave crumbs everywhere!) washed down with red wine. Maybe some fried peppers in olive oil on the side.

I know this one sounds wierd, but my Grandfather used to make them for me when i was a kid. Very simple and quick

White bread (untoasted and spread with softened butter)
Liver sausage or Braunsweiger
Sweet pickle relish
Liberal amount of freshly ground black pepper

Keys to a good deli sandwich :

Claussen (not vlasic) sandwich slice kosher pickles and romaine hearts for crunch

I don't think that is weird at all. Your grandfather did well by you.

Tomato Basil Baguette

* french baguette or your favorite artisan bread, fresh as possible (toast if you like)
* optional: tomatoes are exceptionally good when infused in herb infused extra virgin olive oil, fresh mozzarella cheeze, bacon, etc.
* fresh basil leaves (your favorite kind/color)
* salt and freshly ground pepper to taste on the tomato
* fresh tomato (your favorite kind) sliced OR oven roasted tomato OR oven roasted (sliced)
* kalamata olive spread or chopped black olives
* mayonnaise (Hellman's Mayonnaise or homemade recommended)

Slice the baguette lengthwise. (List above is in order from top to bottom.) Spread mayo with a knife on the bottom layer. Then top with olives/olive spread, add sliced tomatoes, add salt, pepper, then basil. Drizzle with olive oil or add mozzarella if you like. Finish by adding the top part of the bread. Slice into manageable pieces for sandwiches.

It is absolutely delicious. If you like basil at all, you'll be craving this one! Our friends and strangers are always blown away by this one. It's simple and fresh and the flavor combinations are magnificent.

Not so weird I liked mine with onions and mustard. Well actually what was others may have thought was weird was that most 6-10 year old kids don't like stuff like that.

There are some jolly fantastic sandies here.

I do, and always have liked thick potato chip butties, with a spray of malt vinegar, or a smoosh of t'sauce.

Iceberg lettuce and vegemite.

Chichen with ground salt and pepper. So the salt and pepper sort of crunches.

But the best of all will always be fresh tomato on white bread. S&P. never a hint of tomato core, all crusts cut off and the sandie cut into four winsome little points. Bliss.

Wheatberry bread, sliced turkey, sliced brie, thin sliced green apple, basil mayo and field greens=YUMMY

[diane]

I forgot spiced beetroot and cottage cheese. And good old salad sandwich with the world and his wife in it.

[cliveb]

Cheddar cheese ( it has to be Farmhouse - srong and sharp); a little fresh lettuce, and pickled beetroot. White bread - but the whole loaf, not the sliced version. You can add a little black pepper too.

Half a baguette; fine salami, a little peperoncini, mozzarella di bufala, sundried tomatoes cut into strips, plenty of arugula.

Peanut butter, two slices of toasted bacon, thinly sliced cucumber and a bit of alfalfa, splashed with soy sauce/sesame oil/ sriracha...

Hi folks ! Foodi here !

Here are a few sandwiches that come to mind for me .

1. Take freshly hot sliced rst beef right out of the oven and put it on a French Baguette which has a spread on it made with herbed Boursin cheese and fresh ripe avocado mixed together. Serve this open faced with a good melting cheese on top (Provolone,muenster, or maybe a finely chopped gorganzola !

2. Take a single portion of foccacia bread sliced in half and brush on a little garlic infused vinnaigratte and grill it first . Now spread on a little fruit chutney of your choice with some whole grain country dijon mustard mixed in . Heat up a couple pieces of thinly sliced ham , a small amount of freshly washed baby spinach leaves,a couple strips of freshly roasted red peppers and some slices of fresh buffalo mozz on top to melt....

3. Mairnate a whole potobello mushroom over night in the fridge and either grill it or roast it and then make yourself a club sandwich with sauteed sliced pancetta ,a little sherry scented mayo on texas sized sliced homemade whole wheat sandwich bread......You'd better be hungry for this one !

4. Take some salmon and saute it with your favorite spices and finish it in the oven ,now cut and shape the fish to fit on toasted French bread that has a spread of roasted red pepper aoli on it ,add sauteed blackened red onions and melt some Havarti on top !

5. Sliced turkey breast on cold French toast with mayo and a couple of drops of maple syrup !

6. Sliced "Braunschweiger" (spelling ?) on white bread with butter and mustard and a little onion ooooh yea ! Can only have this one once in a while because of the fat...I guess that goes for all of these on my diet !

7. Grilled ham,swiss ,tomato with a slice of Mortadella thrown in served along side a cup of split pea soup .....Americana ?

8. Grilled chicken and cheddar chipoltle quesadillas

9. Greek yeros with extra tzatziki

10. N'awlins style Muffalettas the whole thing by myself...lol

Sorry ....I got carried away...

Favorite sandwich? -- Turkey Melt:

Lots of sliced turkey, lots of diced green chiles, some monterey jack cheese, between 2 slices of jalapeno bread, grilled.

[Radical347]

I was looking to tie up a few of the loose ends in my fridge the other day and made this, I like to call it California Egg Salad. Basically hard boiled eggs mixed with ripe avocadoes instead of mayonnaise & a dash of pepper. Smear on jalapeno cheddar foccacia bread and top with a tomato slice & spinach (or not, depending on your liking).

[K.A]

I like the turkey sandwich and my way to make it I toast some bread in a pan than put butter in poth side than mayonis and slice chess and a lettuce and mustard than a 2 slices if turkey finally I turn bake to tah pan

[siduri]

If you're talking about white packaged bread, i can;t agree more, though a good heavy white bread with chewy crumb and crackly crust, what's wrong with that?
Still, while I like whole wheat bread, whole wheat pasta, please, it tastes like sawdust.
