Sandwiches

As you may or may not have noticed, I rarely eat sandwiches. I always pack a hot lunch for work, and only make sandwiches like grilled cheese when I am low on groceries. Well today I lived on the wild side a little ;-) and ate not one, but two sandwiches.

I am a rebel like that.

Before I get to that ...

Last night I had a lovely grapefruit with a single pack of Stevia sprinkled on top to make it a little sweet. I received the Stevia as a sample a while back, and this was my first time using the packets. I thought it was a perfect addition to the grapefruit.

I think I almost preferred the Stevia to sugar because it wasn't grainy. It has a sweet taste, and no gross aftertaste. It helped balance out the sourness of the grapefruit.

Breakfast this morning was a Green Monster (spinach, amazing grass, almond breeze, banana, almond butter).

Someone at work made little cinnamon rolls things, and I ate a tiny one at break.

For lunch I packed some bread and tuna (mixed with light mayo) to make a tuna sandwich.

I also had an orange:

And a glo-bar:

Someone at work asked me about the glo-bar. My meals are always so bizarre to everyone in the staffroom. Hehe. If they only knew about the green monsters!!

I coached basketball after work, and then came home and made sandwiches for dinner! My good friend Tricia and I used to always go to this little coffee shop to visit. We once tried a sandwich there called "The Cuban" and we fell in love with it. I made my husband try one too, and he also loved it. A year or so later the coffee shop stopped selling the sandwich, and I haven't seen one anywhere else since. I know that this is a "popular" kind of sandwich, but for some reason no one in my city sells them.

Cuban Sandwich

- 1 crusty bun
- couple slices of roasted pork (thickly sliced)
- couple slices of ham (thinly sliced)
- Swiss cheese
- pickles
- mayo

Warm up the sandwich (before you put the pickle and mayo on) for about 35 seconds.

Enjoy!

I enjoyed it with a spinach, mushroom, and romano salad topped with a lemon poppy seed dressing.

And because yesterday's grapefruit was so good, I had another for dessert.

Along with a couple of these crackers and 1 piece of cheese.



Swiss cheese is NASTY when it is not melted. Blech.

Are you a big sandwich lover? What is your favorite kind of sandwich?

I need to step out of the box a little more when it comes to the sandwich department. I still have to try Jessica's peanut butter and bacon combination ... I am scurrrrred!
