Chicken Sandwich with my friend Patty's special Bacon Mayonnaise

Chicken Sandwich with my special Bacon Mayonnaise. I love to make a lot of sandwiches when its summer time because I cant stand a hot kitchen. I also take advantage of my store bought rotisserie chicken this time of year. However, My Husband loves to have Mashed potatoes and Carrots with Miss J. Because its not dinner to him unless there are at least 2 vegetables on the table. So to make that Happy Compromise I will serve a sandwich for dinner but I also will serve those two vegetables even if I am not going to eat them.

Chicken Sandwich with my friend Patty's special Bacon Mayonnaise

2 or three slices of Chicken

1 Tablespoon of Bacon Mayonnaise

2-3 slices of Tomatoes

2 tablespoons Shredded Mexican Cheese

2 slices of Bread I used Udi’s Gluten Free

　

Take bread and place on plate add chicken to one side

Next add sliced tomatoes

Then on other piece of bread add Bacon Mayonnaise

Then add cheese to the top of tomatoes

Close and cut and serve.


Enjoy and Bon Appetit

TIP Of The Day: If you do not own a Panini Press Take a brick and cover with foil and place on top of sandwich. Works the same Way as a Panini Machine. In addition to you can use your George Foreman cooking Machine they are pretty much the same.

Cinco De Mayo Open Faced Fajita Sandwich

After a long weekend of working at my daughters school fair and eating Cotton Candy, Hamburgers, Hot Dogs and lots of popcorn . I knew that it was time to make a real meal again. So I looked in the freezer and saw a Flank steak and I got really excited. With Cinco de Mayo tomorrow I thought a Mexican dish was in order. So I have created a Fajita Open faced sandwich for you and if you like you could serve them with an appetizer of my 7 layer bean dip as an appetizer and More Thyme than Dough’s Slow baked tomatoes.

Makes 4 to 6 servings

Open Faced Fajita Sandwich Ingredients:

One 2 pound Flank steak

3 teaspoons Garlic powder

3 teaspoons pepper

3 teaspoons salt.

1 large Onion sliced in ½ " slices

1 cup frozen sliced bell peppers

2 cups steamed corn

3 tablespoons Olive Oil

Sliced Bread I used Gluten free Udi's

½ cup Parmesan cheese

4 tablespoons butter.

Equipment:

Large Frying Pan or Wok

Broiler or Grill

Tongs

Spoon to stir Onions with

Heat up Broiler or Grill

Take Flank steak and wash and pat dry make sure meat is at room temp prior to cooking.

Next season with salt pepper and Garlic powder on both sides.

You can cook this on the grill or you can broil it as I have. I generally do 5 minutes per side with a 2 pound flank steak.

Next while Flank steak is cooking in a large frying pan or wok separate onions then place in pan with olive oil and sliced bell peppers.

Cook until golden

Next Toast bread either in toaster oven or Broiler or on grill then butter and sprinkle Parmesan cheese on place back in broiler, toaster oven or grill.

Serve on toast or on steamed corn. I steamed mine in microwave for 3 minutes. to the side I made it both ways you decide.

Bon Appetit

Havarti, Apple and Fig Spread Panini

 

During the holidays I like to make quick and easy recipes for my family because we are on the go a lot. So today I’m going to share my favorite Panini Recipe with you a Havarti, Apple and Fig Spread Panini. I love this sandwich because it reminds me of My Grandmothers apple pie but it is not supper sweet.

 

Havarti, Apple and Fig Spread Panini

5 thinly slices of Granny Smith apples

1 tablespoon of Dalamatia Fig Spread

2 slices of Havarti Cheese

1 piece of Gluten Free Bread

TIP OF THE DAY: This is so easy and if you do not have a fabulous Breville Panini Press Machine like me; use a Brick  wrapped in Foil placed on top of the sandwich in a frying pan it will work the samebut make sure you flip it. If you are using a Panini Press Machine no need to flip.

Preheat Panini Press  Machine to 375 degrees

 

While Panini Press machine is being preheated take a large apple and slice paper thin.

 

Next place 1 slice of Havarti cheese on half of the bread and fig spread on other half cut bread in half.

 

Add Apples then other slice of Cheese.

 

 

Place in Panini Press cook 1-2 minutes checking to see when golden brown, remove.
