  • (Gyro) Lamb on pita bread

    While it may not be the most dashing of gyros you might have seen, this quickly constructed concoction is what the Greeks call a gyro. Take roasted lamb meat and mix it with tzatziki sauce, throw in some lettuce (and tomato and onion, not pictured) to make yourself a solid lunch that you’ll taste for […]

  • Ice Cream on chocolate chip cookies

    Ice cream sandwich? Yes, please. Don’t let it sit in the sun, though. You can see, even here in the cool shade the soft serve ice cream is beginning to melt away. The delicious soft cookies just enhance the sweetness of the whole operation. You’ll need a spoon if you ever get soft serve in […]

  • Buffalo Bites on leftover pizza

    Hopefully you didn’t eat the whole pizza. Hopefully you have at least one extra slice to cut up and make a sandwich with. Buffalo bites with the sauce soaked in, almost dried in, mix with the cheesiness of yesterday’s pizza. Leave off the rough crust– reheating never preserves the softness. Pile on the parts, then […]

  • Bacon Cheeseburger on pretzel bun

    Have you heard one of the songs about this tempting pile of goodness? It’s the bun. More than the bacon and the sauce and the burger and the cheese, the pretzel bun gives this sandwich a leg up on the competition. See Wendy trying to look over the pile of taste? Don’t worry, Wendy. We’ll […]

  • Ham and Apple on white

    Salty ham can be quite delicious, but sometimes just a bit too much. If you pair it with the juicy sweetness of a Granny Smith apple, then you might be able to tip the scales in your favor. White bread is a fine way to contain all this commotion. It’s enough activity that you might […]

  • Ham, Turkey, and Cheese on rye

    It’s just another lunch in a long line of lunches. You get a short break to make the most out of your free time. Put off the errands and make yourself a thick, meaty sandwich. Toasted rye will slightly melt the mayo into your bread, giving it a subtle moistness in the face of all […]

  • Sausage and Egg on McGriddle

    Having a case of the Mondays? We have been for most of July. Then we stopped by McDonald’s for a morning sandwich on the go. The heavenly sweetness of McGriddle mixes perfectly with the heartiness of the sausage patty. Add egg for extended protein intake and this treat should take you clear into lunchtime. Home-cooked […]

  • Cheeseburger on glazed doughnut

    Known as the Luther Burger because it was a vision of R&B icon Luther Vandross, this sandwich has many variations. The simplest version is featured here: a glazed doughnut cut like a bagel into two parts and a cheeseburger placed in between. The mixture of flavors is not unpleasant, though better combinations of taste have […]

  • Potato Chip on white

    While certainly not them most creative cuisine we’ve featured, this simple delight is made of potato chips and a bit more tang with a dash of ketchup. White bread will be the only type that’s stripped of any flavors to distract you from the crisp and crunch of chips, though you’ll need a drink nearby […]

  • Mitraillette

    You don’t have to travel to Belgium (but why not go anyway) to taste this sandwich. Fry up your own choice of meat– chicken, above– and get some french fries to go on the softer end of your choice baguette. Top with ketchup to have any ten-year-old boy’s dream come true, in sandwich form. Try […]
