Stew Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I'm so far off topic it's a joke BUT I am wondering what are the best sandwiches ever? I am an office bod now so I've been taking my own lunch (had enough of tescos made up ones) and although I love sandwiches they can get a little boring. I'm looking for new ideas! Ones that will keep till lunch please ie not soggy! There isn't much I don't like so fire away with weird and wonderful concoctions! Is this the most bizarre topic ever????? Quote
stuey Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 i like wafer thin ham..... mature cheese and mayo on crusty bread............. simple and nice.......... Quote
xStric9x Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Jam or lemon curd kind of reminds me of when i was younger Quote
martinmac Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I have a man who makes my sandwiches but my favourite is either Spring onion and mustard mayo with roast beef or camembert apple and pickle. Plus a beer Quote
GC350z Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 No brown bread. Has to have meat. French roll is best. No cheese. Breakfast roll rocks. Quote
Stew Posted February 24, 2008 Author Posted February 24, 2008 Plus a beer Did somebody say beer? Quote
stanski Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Can I offer an alternative? I'm all sandwiched out! Recently going for healthier option for once in my life.... Sliced lettuce, chopped sweet red peppers, slices of Brie (Asda cheapo range is best!) Grapes, cherry Toms, Red pepper Houmous a good sized dollup, light sprinkle of Balsalmic Salad dressing on the veg. Thats it - make it the night before keeps fresh in the fridge and by the time you have it the next day the cheese has reached the correct temperature and its luuurvly - fills you up so stops you snacking on crap in the day? Working so far - just mess about with the ingredients and add or take stuff away - treat your self to a bacon and egg butty once a week to remind you of the lard aspect! Just experiment - so if you want to add a Beer side order go for it! This is part of my cost saving plan to afford the luxury lifestyle that a Zed demands! Quote

Find local Chinese takeaway. Pick up phone. Place order. Sorted. Quote
Stez Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I really like freashly baked granary bread, soft cream cheese spread thickly , thin strips of fresh scottish salmon finished with lemon juice and black pepper. Quote

I'm going healthier at the mo. This will defo be tried out. I still need more ideas though for lunch! Quote
martinmac Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Eat an apple and an orange 30 mins before you have lunch. Kills the hunger Quote
martinmac Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Cheese and onion A regular favourite but you cant get away with that, even as a Mod, Specifically which cheese and which onion Quote
Beavis Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Cheese and onion A regular favourite but you cant get away with that, even as a Mod, Specifically which cheese and which onion Strong cheddar and very strong onion Quote

stanski Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 wow so your all seadogs then? So it was that kind of management meeting then Martin? Hmm interesting.... Do you have your Zed onboard and a Gal in every port ideal for on-tap sandwich provision? Going back to Butties ...... Ciabbata - cut in half lengthwise - lightly butter - slices of Mozarrella or similar melting cheese - cover with a few Sundried tomatoes, black olives, Chroizo slices and whack under the grill or in oven for a few mins till cheese starts to melt - fab stuff! They taste nice when cold also- so you can make them night before but best when eaten fresh on the day and warm. Adjust with with other ingredients such as green peppers - mushrooms ? Experiment thats the best way? I feel hungry now Dont forget a glass of vino or Asahi Beer. Quote
Stew Posted February 24, 2008 Author Posted February 24, 2008 I think a peroni with that one Stan. George Foreman at work is my friend with this one! Quote
Trev-the-Rev Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 wow so your all seadogs then? Lol no not me any longer. I did 5 years world criusing on Canberra in the late 60s and early 70s and then got out and have been ashore ever since Quote
stanski Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I think a peroni with that one Stan Indeed your right I was trying combine the Italian / Japanese doodar since we are on Zed forum! Asahi does tend to give you lots of wind though! No sea jokes from me folks I could'nt do that job - Respect! Quote

Marinate chicken in teriyaki sauce for 15 minutes in the refrigerator. Wash and tear lettuce into small pieces. Slice onion into thin rounds. Grill chicken until well-cooked.
