Sandwich Experimenting

Crunchy peanut butter and a slice of American cheese on 7-grain whole-wheat toast.
I usually make mine open-faced (one slice of bread), but also usually have 2 of them. ;)

I like to experiment making different sandwiches. Yesterday, I bought some onion flavored ciabatta rolls. And I came up with:

Slice the rectangular roll the long way, and pull out the dough in the center. I just like the crusts for making a sandwich. Next on the bottom part of bread, a layer of Mancini longshots ( fried hot peppers ), then a couple pieces of aged sharp provolone. Then some rare roast beef, and top that with sauteed spinach ( garlic and oil), then some grated Romano. Then on the top piece of bread, a bit of light Greek dressing.

Man was that good!
BOY THAT BRINGS BACK MEMORIES. Hanging out on the boat with my older coworker, having pickled banana peppers, aged provolone and croghan bologna.
 
My dad was partial to cream cheese, onions and pumpernickel sammiches. Haven't gotten around to trying that, but it sounds pretty good to me nowadays.
I had to try after seeing it. Iirc I also had radish slices on it. It was good but never made it again. I like dark breads. iirc I made it on those little Aldi’s snack pumpernickel sliced loaves.
 
For a simple sandwich it doesn't get easier or better than my favorite. Bread, mayo, cold leftover meatloaf.
I'm going to agree, better than fresh out of the oven, same with turkey. I'd each a sandwich for just about every meal, Tacos are basically sandwiches, same with Burritos, even Pizza gets turned into a sandwich. I love a breakfast burrito with taters, eggs, chilies, cheese.

I gotta go with ya on the turkey. With mayo and white bread. Other people see it as a way to use up a couple pounds of leftover bird. Me and my mother agreed that Thanksgiving didn't start until Friday and lasted until Sunday, maybe even Tuesday, if the bird was big enough.

My Mom used to take a good portion of the left over turkey and mix it with the left over stuffing and gravy, put that in the oven with the left over mashed taters on top with some cheese, that was pretty damned good as well. She always saved out the dark meat for cold sandwiches.
 
Last night my daughter fixed Baked Beans with Sliced up Hot Dogs ... We call it Jacked up Beenie Weenies !

My Mom would made sliced up hot dogs with baked beans and called in "Frankfurter Hash". My brother and I loved it and thought it was a special treat. It really was her way of stretching the food budget.

By Tuesday it would appear in some kind of pasta dish with other ingredients. We called it "Turkey lurkey" because it was "lurking" in front of the fridge for days by then. Joe
 
I have mentioned in the past that beans on toast is a staple in my homeland. Baked beans are also a part of a full English breakfast.

Tinned brown bread was considered a treat. Mom would serve it with jam and clotted cream.
 
Dad spent a lot of time in the woods, often alone. Every one of his rigs had, at least, a can of B&M Baked Beans, a can of B&M Brown Bread, and a can of Dinty Moore's Beef Stew. Usually multiples, he watched for sales.
I remember one day out fishing, we had the beans and bread with the Velveeta we were using for bait. Just built a fire and heated the beans in an old BSA mess kit.
I think he did it so I wouldn't eat us out of bait. :)

I was a field service tech. for the first half of my career and I used to stop at the market that made Crogan bologna Every time that I was up that way.
 
Dad would occasionally take us on a Sunday drive to Bracken County, KY (his birthplace).

He would hit an old country store and buy two six packs of "Cokes". Two grape, two orange, two root beers and six actual Coca-Colas as vehicles to carry the five bags of Lance peanuts.

He would also grab a loaf of Wonder bread, a jar of mustard, a half pound of either hoop or Colby cheese and ten 1/4" slices of rag baloney complete with red casings.
 
Yeah, after reading you guy's posting about canned bread I did a Google search and found several links to the B&M Canned Bread.
I've never heard of, much less seen, such a thing before now.
Canned bread sounds like some kind of holdover from the days of WWII K-rations to me.
Have I lived some kind of sheltered, privileged life?!? ;)
