KRISTA: Assuming I'm making it at home, it's usually chicken fingers, ham, sliced turkey (best with cranberries), open-faced with smoked salmon, or tuna with mayo. With everything except the salmon, I add piles of lettuce. Shh, don't tell, but I've been known to just have lettuce on the bread with a little mayo!

CLEO: Denise, your wonderful BLT reminds me of how much I always enjoy those triple-decker sandwiches with bacon and turkey. Marc and I are also fond of hot pastrami (with a big, fat pickle on the plate). And neither of us will ever turn down an extra-juicy, charcoal-broiled diner burger with cheese and fresh-cut fries on the side. One of our favorites, however, is a sandwich we featured in our Coffeehouse Mystery series. If anyone would like that recipe, along with our 6 Secrets to Making the Perfect Patty Melt, click here or on the photo below and...eat with plenty of joy! ~ Cleo

Cleo's mouth-watering post reminds me that when we were in New York in January, on our way to Paris, we had absolutely delicious classic pastrami sandwiches at Friedman's on West 47th. (There are other locations as well.) In Paris, we pretty much ate our way through all the French classics, from Nutella crepes to Sole Muniere, the dish that made Julia Child swoon. But one of our favorite meals was lunch at Le Rubis, a neighborhood wine bar in the 1st arrondissement. It's not much more than a hole in the wall, with a fabulous zinc bar and a sign on the restroom reading "Toilettes Telephone." (The real reason French people stay slim? So they can fit in the typical restroom and make a phone call.) We loved seeing the neighbors drop in for a glass of vin blanc or an afternoon espresso, greeting the barkeep by name or with the bis (the ritual cheek-kissing), almost as much as we loved the extremely simple, extremely yummy sandwiches: salami on a buttered baguette for my hunny and a long hunk of Brie on a buttered baguette pour moi. When the ingredients are that good, simple hits the spot.
Ellie: Hummus! Always hummus. I think hummus is the most versatile and least used condiment. Sure, we traditionally think of hummus as a dip, but it’s perfect on sandwiches. It’s thick, creamy, packed with protein, and won’t turn your bread soggy. My favorite sandwich is hummus with sun-dried tomatoes, shaved carrots, thin-sliced turkey, and arugula, served on a crusty olive bread. Swoon.
VICKI: Oh yes. Sandwiches. Love 'em. Like Daryl I almost never eat them, but my favourite by far, and worth waiting for, is left-over turkey sandwiches made the day after Thanksgiving or Christmas. I sometimes think the purpose of the turkey dinner is to provide me with sandwiches the day after. I like my turkey sandwich fairly plain with just piles of turkey, a spoon of cranberry sauce, and lashings of mayonnaise.
LESLIE: Vicki, swap that mayo for a healthy swipe of cream cheese and I'm there with you!
PEG: I'm not a big sandwich eater--like several of you, I'm always trying to watch my waist line (trying being the operative word here!). But I do love a sandwich with bacon on it. Of course I pretty much love bacon anything! But turkey with bacon, tomatoes, avocado and mayo is a sure ticket to heaven--gustatory heaven that is. Avocado is another sandwich addition that will elevate almost anything like tuna salad, chicken salad or your humble BLT!
MADDIE: What Peg said! You can't go wrong with avocado on any sandwich, in my native-Californian opinion. Nobody has mentioned a Caprese yet: picture a grilled slice of sourdough spread with basil pesto, topped with a thick slice of sun-warmed tomato, another slice of local mozzarella, and a big basil leaf, all drizzled good olive oil and real balsamic? 100% yum. Wait - did you say it's MARCH? Ah, well, summer will be along soon enough.
LUCY: I eat the same sandwich almost every day when I'm at home working. This would be half a Goldman's bagel (that's our local Key West shop), toasted with Boar's Head Canadian cheddar, and then piled with pickled sweet jalapenos from The Backyard Food Company and arugula or radish sprouts from the Florida Keys Garden. The bagel can be cranberry or everything or poppyseed, but the other ingredients don't vary, much to my husband's astonishment.
MAYA: A BLT in the summer when the tomatoes are ripe is my favorite sandwich, but winter tomatoes are not worth buying. My winter workaround is a BLAST sandwich--Bacon, Lettuce, Avocado, and Sun-dried Tomatoes. I spread sun-dried tomato pesto on one piece of toast and mayo on the other piece. As Peg and Maddie said, avocado improves any sandwich. I love guacamole on burgers, whether beef, veggie, or fish burgers.

In our house we like fresh tomato slices and plant-based bacon on our grilled cheese sandwiches. Delicious!
ReplyDeletebrowninggloria(at)hotmail(dot)com
Me, too. Nice combo. ~ Daryl
DeleteBacon lettuce and tomato sandwich with mayo. In the winter I don't like the tomotoes though. In the summer I even skip the bacon it's still delicious. Sun ripen tomotoes freshly picked so heavenly. Thank you for the chance I really enjoy all of your books! Turkey sandwiches yum!
ReplyDeleteFresh tomatoes are so important, Donamae. ~ Daryl
DeleteIn my house its tuna fish and mayo... mixed with pickles, onions, and eggs on Brown bread and a piece of fruit...but I do love tomato sandwiches in the summer...thank you for the chance.
ReplyDeleteMarilyn ewatvess@yahoo.com
Oh my - that all sounds good! Whenever I have leftover chicken, I like to make a chicken salad sandwich. It's so simple, but so delicious. I usually bake the chicken with olive oil, and Italian and garlic seasonings. For the salad, I like to keep the chicken chunky, and I add mayo and tarragon. Sometimes I also add chopped walnuts and apple or dried cranberries. I'm so hungry right now! I need to go fix breakfast, but before I go I just want to say thank you for the chance at the giveaway. Renee - rwilson@ws4r.com
ReplyDeleteI am all about the bread! If the bread has seeds, I am happy! That being said, I enjoy roasted turkey with mustard. If tomatoes are in season, I will add a slice or two.r
ReplyDeleteLisacobblestone@aol.com
Lisa, that's interesting. Seed bread. I like it. ~ Daryl
DeleteI'm with Vicki, left-over turkey and cranberry sauce. My absolute favourite. I like Leslie's idea of using cream cheese, must try it.
ReplyDeleteI discovered the combo ages ago when I was a teenage bookseller and the cafe near the bookshop served it year-round. Enjoy!
DeleteIt's the extras like fresh tomatoes and pickles and real mayo that make a sandwich special 💕
ReplyDeleteToday it's going to be smoked salmon on a bagel thin. Mmmmmmm. But when it's summer time, it's always fresh tomatoes from my garden. Sliced and patted dry and then laid lovingly on the bread with a touch of mayo. Bacon is grand with this, but not necessary.
ReplyDeleteSusan, sounds delicious. ~ Daryl
DeleteMy favorite sandwich varies. I like most that are neat based. There are some combinations here I’d like to try. suefoster109 at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteMulti-grain bread with fresh tomatoes and pesto are a delight. saubleb(at)gmail(dot)com

ReplyDeleteA Montreal sesame bagel with a shmear of cream cheese and smoked salmon. Wonderful! elliotbencan(at)hotmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteOoooo what a great question. I am actually torn between a good Reuben and a sandwich that I fell in love with in London in the early '90's. The latter was a length of baguette as the bread, buttered and filled with mayo-based shrimp salad, avocado slices and crispy bacon. At home, I might make it with a softer bread to decrease the likelihood of filling smooshing out when taking bites of the sandwich. I will add that there were plenty of great luncheon sandwiches I tried at the sandwich places office workers frequented (like tikka chicken and coronation chicken fillings)
ReplyDeletelittle lamb lst at yahoo dot com
Lil, that shrimp salad baguette sounds fabulous!
DeleteCheese and ham
DeleteI seldom eat them, but I like chicken salad sandwiches.
ReplyDeletergp1950@yahoo.com
Hands down I love chicken salad on rye - but it's got to have big chunks of chicken. Soggy sandwiches with more mayo than meat make me gag! Of course, you can never go wrong with grilled cheese made with honest to goodness Vermont cheddar! I'd love to win - feeling the need to try some new authors! My email is mergatroid1@verizon.net.
ReplyDeleteAlison, I agree. I hate a soggy sandwich. ~ Daryl

ReplyDeleteI love BLT’s with thin sliced cucumbers and a lot of mayo. It’s horrible for my health but oh so good!
ReplyDeleteCucumbers are good for you! :)
DeleteFor us it's a toss up between BELT and grilled cheese. Do grilled cheese a dozen ways depending on mood. But a BELT? It takes the lead with bacon, tomato, lettuce and fried egg, and mayo, of course. By bacon. I mean lots of bacon. Two layers. bessdeepotter84 at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteAdding a fried egg sounds really interesting, Bess. Must try. ~ Daryl
DeleteOne of my faves is a toasted turkey sandwich on wheat with Monterey Jack cheese, spinach, honey mustard and mayo.

ReplyDeleteOnorman at wilkes dot net
Fun to see what everyone likes on their sandwiches.
ReplyDeleteI have had to change the way I eat, so my sandwiches are now without bread. But I love to use lettuce wraps or coconut wraps. I love egg salad, chicken salad, blt, and of course fresh from my garden tomoatoes added quilting lady 2 at comcast dot net
Coconut wraps? Do tell! There are some interesting wraps now made without wheat -- I like the ancient grain teff.
DeleteMy favorite sandwich is pimento cheese. I make my own with sharp shredded cheese, diced pimentos, and Hellman’s mayo. I like to experiment with it! I’ve added bacon, tomatoes, olives. I’ve tried different types of bread. I’ve toasted and grilled it. It’s all good - although I wasn’t a big fan of the olives. 😂
ReplyDeleteHot roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes, not for diets but comfort food
ReplyDeleteMr. Right's fave -- or hot turkey. He loves stopping in the local bar to treat himself, but as you say, not too often!
DeleteMy favorite sandwich is a Reuben. Usually I put mayo on other sandwiches, but I love all the different flavors in a Reuben.
ReplyDeleteSometimes a peanutbutter & strawberry jelly on white bread is a nostalgic choice for me.

I like bacon on my grilled cheese sandwiches & I like the way my Mom made grilled cheese sandwiches. She spread butter on one side of two slices of bread. She put the buttered side down in a cast iron skillet then put a slice of American cheese on it then put the other slice of bread on top with the buttered side up. Then she flipped the sandwich and browned it thoroughly. We always had kosher dills & tomato soup with the sandwich. Not technically grilled but oh so good!

ReplyDeleteThis is making me hungry! There is nothing to compare with a home grown tomato, in my opinion. BLTs are gourmet fare, and I have been known to have a plain tomato sandwich. I also enjoy smoked Turkey, or roasted turkey. Have you tried cranberry jelly (that canned stuff) as a replacement for mayo on turkey sandwiches?
ReplyDeleteStephanie, cranberry sauce with turkey is one of my favorite sandwiches. Or maybe I like turkey with cranberry sauce. Hm. Chicken vs. egg. LOL ~ Daryl
DeleteI love sandwiches, and (unfortunately) all kinds of good bread! Usually I try to just eat a half sandwich (for lunch or a snack), and pile on all kinds of goodies, like lettuce, tomatoes, and/or pickles, olives, pickled Vidalia onions, even pickled okra! Pumpernickel-rye, ciabatta, French, etc. are special treats. Tuna, shrimp or chicken salad have been faves, along with grilled cheese and BLTs.

In our home, homegrown tomatoes take the top of list of ingredients. In fact, hubby worked up the soil yesterday in preparation for growing some tomatoes this season. Homegrown doesn't even compare to store bought, but rather are in a breed all their own. You can't put a price tag on the fresh taste. In the tomato growing season, my favorite sandwich is the BLT. Like the famous Tommy's restaurant in Michigan, we put tons of fresh cooked bacon, lettuce and mustard on our choice of bread (mine is always rye if given a choice) and the since we eat loads of tomatoes they are served in a bowl to the side so you can fork a piece with each bite (and maybe a bite of two in between bites).
ReplyDeleteIn the off growing season, to make the perfect for me sandwich, you need lots of thin sliced smoked ham, Swiss cheese, and grilled onions on toasted rye bread. Another choice would be breaded and fried pork tenderloin with sliced onion on fresh white bread. Then lastly let me add that while in the hospital once and needed to eat lots of protein, I learned about putting chopped or ground nuts in tuna fish and now it's one of my go to's when making that kind of sandwich. It's amazing what great flavor and texture it adds to a standard sandwich.
Honestly think you can make a sandwich out of anything or out of any leftover meat. Some times when we have been out all day taking photographs that is exactly what we do. We grab bread and make a sandwich out of what we can find. Regardless of what you put on it, the majority of the time the two must haves are tomatoes and onion.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite sandwich is a grilled cheese using some of the cheese my brother-in-law has made using milk from his cows - his Italian (tomato, basil and garlic) in a toasted cheeses eaten with tomato soup is one of my favorite after church lunches!

ReplyDeleteLove a grilled cheese sandwich (with 2 slices of cheddar) with pickle slices and bacon in between the cheese. Yum! bookworm814(at)comcast(dot)net
ReplyDeleteI too, rarely eat sandwiches due to a temperamental waistline. I love fresh garden tomatoes with Swiss cheese, a swipe of mayo, mustard, salt and pepper. Yum. I also looked forward to the leftover sandwiches...turkey or roast with a little salt and pepper. Now I'm craving a sandwich! Sometimes I'll take a piece of cheese with tomato and eat it with a little mustard, it's like an unwich. Boy, I can't wait for garden veggies! =) konecny7 at gmail dot com.
