Unusual Sandwiches

[was]

What you described is pretty much how I'd have mine, but I added mushrooms.

..I would have added them too. Unfortunately for me, someone else at the table snagged the mushrooms in their doggy bag.

What kind of slaw was it, sweet or savory?

 

[Abraxas]

Sweet - but not too sweet, more vinegar than most would use, that way it meshed well with the ginger chili dressing.

Tonight: turkey breast & prosciutto with dill havarti, mayo, & spicy brown mustard on a pretzel roll.

It's strange, and I don't like it, though my wife does: the fluffernutter. Peanut butter & marshmallow fluff.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

I've never had a fluffernutter, but I can see how that would work.







For SOME people.

Just a thought: when I was in college, I ate so many PB & grape jelly sandwiches, I found I could no longer eat grape jelly. Instead, I now usually eat my PB with honey. Maple syrup works well, too.

Which made me think- what about Agave nectar? If you've never had it, it is similar in appearance & texture to maple syrup, and tastes a bit like cotton candy. Might work well with PB...

Which reminds me of this: the Lazy Man's Monte Christo.

A buddy of mine likes Monte Christo sandwiches. Specifically, the version which is ham (& turkey, sometimes), Swiss cheese, and strawberry preserves on French toast sprinkled with powdered sugar. Unfortunately for him, the restaurant that made those around here went out of business. He lamented this to me, wondering what he would do without his franken-sandwich...

I thought for a minute, and told him all he had to do was put his meat & cheese between a pair of freshly toasted frosted strawberry Pop-Tarts. Voila- Lazy Man's Monte Christo!

He ALMOST hugged me.
