Sandwich Love

Hi Again,

Lately I have really had an addiction to Sandwiches.

I have honestly always had a Love for Sandwiches.

What is your Favorite Sandwich?

I don't think I could really pick a favorite..

but if I had too....

I would pick a plain white bread with plenty of mayo and lots of Fresh Tomatoes with Salt & Pepper!

I know, nothing fancy about it!

But ever since I read about it on Harriet the Spy when I was a kid...  

I know, books really do effect my life!

Anyways.....

I always enjoy a freshly made Egg Salad - especially of the eggs come from my chickens!

Makes the salad taste 100 times better!

Lately I have been making a lot of Egg Salad and Tuna Salad.

I guess I wanted to make something then the usual  Ham & Turkey.

This time around , I also made some Fresh Honey Wheat Bread that did not need any kneading...

which the whole the family loved. I do not have a Recipe or it this time because this was a package mix.

It came out really Good and with the Egg Salad even better.

What kind of Bread do yall eat at home more?

Wheat or White?

Here are a few Sandwich ideas and Recipes I have found recently.

One was Crispy Chicken w/ Avocado and Mozzarella with a yummy Lemon Mayo.

Here is the Link to the Recipe:

Another Yummy Sammy I want to try is from an old Martha Living Magazine ,

I found it the other day.

It is a Grilled Ham with Broccoli Rabe and Fontina Cheese and Fig Jam / Dijon Mustard.

Well that is it for now...until later!

Happy Thursday!
