I made this sandwich out of a desire to use up delicata squash from the CSA. Delicata is probably my favorite winter squash, and it requires very little work to prepare. The squash for the sandwich doesn’t need to be peeled, because the skin is thin and perfectly edible. Just scoop out the seeds and [...]

Taking a detour from turkey leftovers, this sandwich is a (very liberal) take on a croque monsieur. A classic croque is ham and gruyere, topped with béchamel and more gruyere. This version swaps out the gruyere are béchamel for a mixture of cheeses, including fresh mozzarella, parmesan and goat cheese. I can’t remember the last [...]
I blame Emma for the appearance of these sandwiches on our table. I don’t know if she knows about my fixation for panini, but when she pointed out the recipe, I knew I had to make it. I hesitate to even call this a recipe, it’s so simple. The sandwich begins as a toasted cheese [...]
I wouldn’t go as far to say this is anything like an authentic New Orleans po’ boy, but it’s a good sandwich. The shrimp is seasoned with chili powder and paprika and is really good on its own. There isn’t much else to the sandwiches, just some tomato and onion and a simple slaw. I [...]
I have this thing for toasted sandwiches… panini (panino if it’s just one sandwich). There’s just something about it, the crunch of the bread, the grooves from the panino press, the way the filling gets oozy and starts to meld with the bread. I just love it. I’d been wanting to replace my old panino [...]
This is a simple dish, just sliced tempeh baked in a homemade barbecue-type sauce. The tempeh soaks up the sauce and gets nice and brown in the oven. It’s good on its own, or in a sandwich – we like it just on bread with avocado, or in a wrap with avocado. The point is, [...]
Some people celebrated Easter or Passover this past week. But today is our holiday, National Grilled Cheese Day. And it was a great day for it too – windy, cold and stormy. There isn’t anything particularly special about making the sandwiches – a liberal coating of salty butter (Kerrygold, to be specific – it’s very [...]
Larry and I are both big fans of sandwiches. He’s got a definite talent for putting great flavors together between two slices of bread, too. But tonight it was up to me – he just returned from a week at a conference in Orlando, so I knew he’d want something decent for dinner after a [...]
I had the pleasure of having dinner (and drinks!) with Pam Anderson and her daughter Maggy of Three Many Cooks last month, while they were in San Francisco promoting Pam’s latest cookbook, Cook without a Book: Meatless Meals. I’ve been a Pam fan for a long time, through her contributions to Fine Cooking Magazine and [...]
Everything about this sandwich appeals to me – sweet roasted cherry tomatoes, great bread, smashed avocado. Protein comes in the form of marinated and pan-fried tempeh. I normally make my own bread, but we’re still recovering from vacation so I picked up a loaf of Acme pain au levain. Bread matters, and Acme makes some [...]
