Coffee National British Sandwich week

May 14th - 2th is national sandwich week - British sandwich week.org.uk

A great chance to celebrate & experiment with sandwiches, bread types, regular and the more unusual fillings - page full of great recipes from veggie stuff.com

Bread types: sliced bread, bread rolls, baguettes, french sticks, rye, wholemeal, white, Naan ...

Savoury fillings: cheese - hard and soft, sandwich/savoury spreads, mayo combinations, coleslaw, marmite, meatfree slices and strips, peanut butter

Sweet fillings: jam, syrup, chocolate spread

Salad: cress, lettuce, red cabbage strands, grated and peeled carrot, cucumber, tomato

Try baking your own bread rolls - add a slice of tomato and a few strands of cheese to the top of them just before baking. Or maybe a few slices of red & green peppers with a sprinkling of mixed herbs & a little grated cheese on top before cooking.

Use by ...
Halving or cutting into triangles to serve at snack time.
Prepare a salad sandwich bar for child led assembly ...
Decorate plates for snack time - cover with clear plastic film if the sandwiches are likely to become glittery !!!
Canape cutters are a novel way to create delicious small sandwiches!!

Keep posting your ideas for this yummy campaign week ....

Mmmmmm sandwiches, one of my favourite comfort foods! Personally I opt for one of:

PB & J, PB and banana, cheese and beetroot, beetroot or crisps! How heathly/disgusting am I???? (I also like cold dumplings spread with Jam!)

My kids love shape sarnies, DS makes his own but I'm not brave enough to let the 21 month old loose just yet!

My children love pizza whirls. Make up some bread dough (I cheat and use the bread maker to prepare a packet mix of bread :blush:).

Roll this out to a large square. Spread with tomato puree, sprinkle on some herbs and whatever pizza type topping that you fancy. We are veggie so I use peppers, onions, mushrooms and sweetcorn that I have softened slightly in the frying pan. Cover this with some mozerella cheese (or cheddar will do).

Roll the dough into a shape like a big swiss roll. Slice along the roll, about 2cm thick. Lie the slices flat on an oven tray and bake as the stated on your dough recipe.

These make lovely pizza type sandwiches/rolls that are nice eaten hot or cold. I make a batch then freeze them. It saves me making a sandwich for packed lunches as I just take one of these out to defrost.

Half way through this years event, has anyone made any unusual combinations or stuck to more traditional fillings ?
