I normally have pretty basic tastes when it comes to sandwiches: meat, cheese, mayo, a spread of some kind and/or lettuce if I have some on hand. But it’s nice to throw in something different now and then.
Sticking to one or two ingredients (this is the dull men’s club after all) how do you all like to kick up your sandwiches a bit?
I’ll start-- it’s nothing crazy, but Aldi sells a Bavarian sweet mustard that’s a really nice step up from regular yellow mustard for a ham & swiss.
I do spinach in lieu of lettuce. It’s something.
I presume this is a very well-understood fact, but l also find that a sandwich prepared the day prior and given a night in the fridge before being carted to work is superior to one prepped and eaten immediately or only left in a lunchbox for a handful of hours from that morning. The bread softens up nicely as it passively takes on moisture from the spread and toppings.
