Ma's Double Decker Sandwich

It's hotter than hell outside (well here in MI at least) so come inside, cool down, and read your favorite blog recipe. Howdy all, Dinah here back again for your blog recipe enjoyment bringing you what's served up for tonight's dish. Now, with it being like a sauna outside we opted to stay indoors and make a recipe that involves absolutely NO COOKING. Wait! come back, I swear this one's good. Aw, come on trust me. I have yet to let you down. :D. It's nice not to turn on the oven every once in a while. Right? Ma's pick is going down the sandwich route. It's the kind of sandwich that has something for everyone. Now, I know those are words that may have you wondering because not everyone's sandwich styles are the same but I think this one truly is open to anyone's taste buds. Maybe it'll become your new fave sandwich?

Intrigued? Follow me:

Ma's double decker sandwich
Serves 4

4 bread bowls
package of pepperoni, turkey breast, salami, & roast beef
2 packages of white cheddar and mozzarella cheeses
2 tomato's (sliced)
head of lettuce (washed and chopped)
1 container of pre-made pesto sauce



*Slice bread rolls into 3 slices. Spray with veggie spray and toast up in electric skillet or skillet until golden brown. Once golden brown lather your bread sliced with the pesto sauce and then proceed with layering meat and cheese followed by lettuce and tomato. Plate and enjoy!



Now that is a pretty sandwich!


This is honestly one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. I loved everything on it (minus the roast beef, bleh) and I am hard to please in the sandwich department well except for Subway ;]. Definite keeper!


Tid Bits:
*Bread bowls don't tickle your fancy? Try any type of bread you like.
*Try any meats and cheese's you like
*PLEASE do not ever leave off the pesto sauce. It is epic, ha!
*Make sure you put your pesto on the buns while their warm, it helps infusion the pesto flavor on the bread slices.


Ma's Spot: As I was looking through my recipes I didn't really feel anything that caught my eye so I made up this one myself. I am a big sandwich fan anyways, especially for the summertime. So I came up with this dish for those hot days for when you don't want to cook or grill. To save a few calories you can get the low fat cheese and lunch meat. I didn't use any butter to grill the bread slices, just spray. I feel it makes the bread too soggy. The spray makes it more crisp. They are big sandwiches so if you like to half it and share with someone else, go for it.

*SNACK CORNER:*

It's time for snack corner! Where we take new snacks in the grocery store and break it down for you. We tell you which are hot and which are not. Let's get to this week's picks:




Dinah: This week's snack comes to us from the healthy good people of Nature Valley. Aw, come on guys, it's nice to go healthy! Give it a chance. So Ma picked the Dark Chocolate Granola Thins (they also have peanut butter flavor if you dig the nutty goodness over chocolate) and I gotta say I love them. Thin granola, creamy chocolate, and healthy for you? I'm sold! The box comes with 10 squares for a really decent price. Definite buy, pick up for a nice snack or even breakfast.


Ma: This snack is not new to me for I have been buying them for a while now. I bought the chocolate backing for tonight due to Dinah's peanut allergy but I encourage you trying the peanut butter thins because it's also just as delicious. I love granola anyways so this is a low cal snack you will enjoy.



And so ends another week's blog entry. I know, I get sad too. We'll be back next Tuesday with another recipe and snack. Have a great week guys!
