Pizza Recipe: Green peppers, Tomatoes, Olives, Parmesan/Pecorino Romano Cheese, Grilled Chicken

One of the pizzas from Wendie’s surprise birthday party, this one has some grilled chicken (with a very nice spice blend including smoked paprika), two cheeses, olives, tomatoes, green peppers and onions. The dough is a pizza dough with honey I sort-of invented (based loosely on our Lavash crackers recipe), and the tomato sauce has [...]

Sandwich Recipe: Corned Beef On Olive-Rosemary Bread With Muffaletta, Parmesan And Pesto

We’ve never had corned beef before, but recently decided to give it a try. This is our first attempt, and while we are not quite happy with the look of this sandwich, it tasted great. This was of course also another reason to get out ye olde burner, to give the Parmesan on top a [...]

Roasted Duck Sandwich

Christmas Day we made Alton Brown’s Mighty Duck, since duck is a tradition in our family. Truth be said, we’re not sure if Alton’s recipe counts as a roasted or steamed duck, but we’re calling it roasted for now. This resulted in a delicious box of leftovers, which of course is perfect for sandwiches. So [...]

Shrimp Sandwich Recipe: Cilantro Lime Shrimp on Potato Rosemary Bread With Lettuce, Vodka-Mustard, Gravlakssås, Lemon and Dill

This sandwich is one of the many that can be created almost entirely from Costco. No, they don’t sponsor us.  We just like a lot of their foods (psst, Costco, if you read this, get in touch!!).   We particularly love it when they feature cheeses on the tasting floors. In fact, we get practically giddy [...]

Smoked Salmon Pizza – The Way My Mother Never Made It

“Pizza!” you may be saying with increduility as you wonder at the seeming incongruity of providing pizza recipes on a sandwich blog.  Well, please bear with us while we provide this rather plausible and very convincing rationale.

In Scandinavia, there is a long tradition of open-faced sandwiches (or smørrebrød as they are called in Denmark).   [...]

Spicy Roast Beef Sandwich with Cheese, Olives, Onions, Fresh Basil Leaves and Sprouts

This spicy roast beef cheese sandwich has hot (but sweet) chili sauce inside, and is made with a strong pungent cheese as well, both adding to the spicy flavor. It’s made on a toasted ciabatta roll, and has plenty of crunch from the sprouts. Adding a few fresh basil leaves brings it to a whole [...]

Mesquite Wood Smoked Turkey Cheese Sandwich

This is one of my favorite lunch items in downtown San Diego. It is served, surprisingly, at Ralphs, and is not only a great sandwich, but also very affordable at just $5.99.  I particularly enjoy the mesquite wood smoked turkey sandwich on nine grain & seed bread  (Toasted), with cajun and horseradish mayo. I usually [...]

Smoked Salmon, Fresh Herbs and Vidalia Onion Dressing

This little gem of a sandwich takes about 5 minutes to put together, and tastes amazing. The fresh herbs  compliment the soft smoked salmon with a crunchiness, all rounded of with the delicions Vidalia onion dressing.
