What is your favorite sandwich?

[piphiangel314]

Smoked gouda on sourdough grilled cheese. It is the best sandwich ever.

can we do breakfast sandwiches too?

im a fan of egg bacon and cheddar on a crossaint. toasted only on the inside, cause then the outside gets all flaky and i dont appreciate that.

[tld221]

oh wait, one more, because i rarely meet a sandwich i dont like.

turkey, green apple slices and brie on a baguette. yum.

My number one favorite is salami and cheddar on wheat. I like mine with Italian vinaigrette (oil and vinegar in a pinch), a little Tabasco, tomato, and dill pickle. They're good made with the bread toasted (like... just the bread) or heated up, though they're greasier hot.

I also love Reubens--Corned beef, sauerkraut, and swiss on rye, with thousand island dressing, grilled. I like mine with LOTS of sauerkraut (and a little Tabasco, 'cause it's like CRACK.)

My perfect burger is medium rare, ketchup, mustard, tomato, sweet onion, dill pickle (or sweet-pickled banana wax peppers that my daddy makes), on a waaarm bun. Y'all are going to make fun of me, but I put onion dip on my burgers if it's around. MMMM. Cheddar and bacon never hurt, either... I also like 'em with bleu cheese in the middle. You take two thiiiin patties, put a bit of bleu cheese in the center of one, put the other on top, and press the edges together... if you do it that way, sauteed mushrooms on top are the way to go.

Leftover Thanksgiving/Christmas/Holiday Turkey Sandwich smothered with gravy. It's as if I look forward to it every year.

Back when I lived in Houston there was a deli in my office building that made just what you are talking about with very sharp cheddar. That rocked! They toasted the croissant open faced on the grill which kept the outside from drying out.

Tippiechick- sundried tomato chicken sounds awesome. How do you make that? Or is it a deli meat?

OTW- good call on the holiday leftovers. Plain Thanksgiving turkey with mustard on croissants is another one I like. Never tried it with gravy- but does sound good.

Good stuff overall. I have a selfish reason for this thread- I am looking for some other good healthy sandwich ideas to add to the mix, and lots of good ones so far.

The best breakfast sandwich I've ever had was at this coffee shop back home.

Big croissant bread, two or three sausage patties, eggs sunny side up, with cream cheese and honey on the bread. It would fatten you up right quick.

Sourdough bread
Turkey (thin slices, not chunky weirdness)
Swiss cheese
Mayo
Mayyyybe lettuce

[tld221]

what im craving right now: eggs over easy on toasted wheat with ketchup. sounds gross but it is <3.

[Phine]

Mozzarella, tomato and basil panini...only when its done right.
Turkey club with avocado.

I always like a good sandwich from a real Italian deli. When I make sandwiches for work, I usually keep it pretty simple, since I don't have a lot of time in the morning.

There's also a place in Boston, Parish Cafe (http://www.parishcafe.com/menu.html), that does sandwiches from recipes of prominent local chefs. I've never had anything there that I disliked. Plus, they have a great beer selection, which doesn't hurt.

wheat bread (toasted or not)
smooshed avocado
spicy alfalfa sprouts
chicken

There are times I feel so weird. (okay, a lot of times I feel so weird ), but I really, really hate sandwiches. Maybe I got tired of them as a kid, but ever since I was a teenager, sandwiches to me have been what you eat when there isn't anything else to eat. Part of it may be the bread -- there really isn't much sandwich bread that tastes good to me.

I like burgers -- as long as they're not too thick, are on a plain (and not thick) bun and don't have any vegetable-type food on them. Cheese, bacon and condiments are all I want. (Okay, maybe fried onion rings -- the frying makes up for the vegetableness. ) But I really don't like sandwiches.

Sorry, I can't help you EE-BO. I know what it's like looking for new, good, healthy and easy things for lunch -- I'm doing the same thing, looking for new, good, healthy and easy things that aren't sandwiches for lunch.

I also love reubens. That's probably the sandwich I get most "out".

My faves that I make are grilled portabella burgers (grilled cap, with roasted red peppers, melted smoked gouda on an onion roll) or a Muffuletta sandwich, a la Central Grocery in Nola: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muffuletta

I got a pretty good recipe when I used to live in La.
