Best Sandwich

You can pick ONLY one. I thought I knew... but today everything changed.

Toasted croissant
Smashed avocado on one side (NOT guacamole, plain smashed avocado)
Sharp white cheddar (lightly broiled) on the other

I'm out of croissants till Saturday, I don't know how I'll make it till then.

What's your desert island sandwich?

Chicken, bacon and avo
nice ham, soft white bread, proper butter
Grated cheese, soft white bread, proper butter

I don't like fancy sandwiches

Although I've just remembered a place near my office that's has unfortunately closed down - full roast dinner in a sandwich. It was a thing of beauty, about a foot high, and amazing hangover food.

I make one from wholemeal bread, bacon, sliced boiled egg, lettuce and mayo. Lush.

@troppibambini6 where do you get the ciabatta ? Please ?
Aldi used to sell them but not anymore ?

Waitrose has them!

The best threat! That you OP @ZuzuSusu

Mine is salt beef/pastrami with black olive tapenade, cornichons, and a bit of soft goat cheese or ricotta or even Greek yogurt in a brioche bun or baguette.

Got to be cold rare roast beef with s & p and horseradish sauce, or with English mustard on a baguette.

Place near my work does a full English jacket potato. Tried it once and only once as it's impossible to actually eat it all and all I wanted afterwards was an afternoon nap. Not conducive to an afternoon of work 😂

2 slices white farmhouse loaf made into French toast, thick cut ham, cheddar and ketchup. Or salt & vinegar crisps and really thick butter

Chicken and avocado.
Or simple cheese and onion

mondaytosunday · 08/09/2022 14:09

BLT. Add avocado. A nice mayo snd toasted bread. Yum.
Second favourite would be Brie, apricot jam and bacon, in a squidgy white bread then microwaved to part melt the cheese. Omg I'm hungry now!

@FatAgainItsLettuceTime yes definitely, this was back in the day, we'd eat it, maybe have a nap in the contemplation room and then go back to the pub. Doesn't quite work like that anymore 😂

Not entirely altruistic @Frogium ... I've nabbed two of these recipes for my meal plan this week! I'll never say which!

Whole meal pita spread with good mayo, filled with hard-boiled egg and tomato.
Panini spread with good mayo, filled with smoked bacon and Brie, with home-made cranberry sauce spread between those two.
Toasted sourdough, covered in crushed avocado, then rocket, strong Cheddar, tomato.
Cheap white bread, lots of butter, chips, oodles of tomato sauce.
