Submarine Sandwiches

Turkey Swiss submarine sandwich

A submarine sandwich, or sub, is a versatile food.  You can add or subtract any ingredients you like.  A sub, for short, is also referred to as a hoagie, Po' Boy or Dagwood sandwich.  I love eating these from SUBWAY, the restaurant.  Unfortunately, I can't always afford to go there so it's easier to buy the ingredients and make them at home.

Ingredients for a sub sandwich

Here are the simple ingredients for a submarine sandwich:

--Spinach or lettuce

--Tomatoes

--Submarine rolls (wheat)

--Turkey breast or other luncheon meat

--Swiss cheese or other kind

--Philadelphia cream cheese (optional)

Plain sub sandwich

I like mine with black olives and green bell peppers.

My kids like their sandwiches plain.  Some like mustard on it.  Some like it with spinach.  It doesn't matter what you want, every sub can be made according to your wants and needs.  I know SUBWAY even makes some with meatballs.  

There are some considerations: You can add any condiments.  You can freeze the rolls so they won't rot.  You can cut your finished submarine sandwich in half and eat the rest later.  The more choices for filling, the more fun it is to make your subs.  Finally, get your kids involved in making them; it's fun to watch them make their own subs.

Well, thanks for reading about how to make  

a simple submarine sandwich.

Variations on a Sandwich

Healthy, delicious sandwich

I am down to the wire, wondering what to blog about.  I applied to my husband, asking him what I should write.  He said I should leave it off for tomorrow, but I am adamant about blogging every day for this year.  He suggested I write about sandwiches.  Oh, there's a subject I haven't written about.

Here goes a lovely description about my version of a delicious sandwich.  I love adding healthy ingredients.   One can add any condiment of choice.  Any meat and vegetables can be included, too.  Enjoy the pictures.

Simple ingredients for a healthy sandwich

Easy ingredients:

Bread, 

Turkey breast slices,

Cheese slice,

Spinach,

Tomatoes, 

Mayonnaise

SaraLee bread with no high fructose corn syrup

My choice of condiment--mayonnaise

Sandwich assembled my way

A sandwich can be assembled in any way, as long as the ingredients end up in between the two slices of bread.  Of course, one bread can be used for a younger child.  Mustard can be used instead of mayonnaise.  Spinach and tomatoes can be left out.  In place of turkey breast slices, bologna or ham can be eaten.

 

 

Well, thanks for reading about my easy sandwich variations.  I hope this informs you all of quick sandwiches which can be thrown together.

 

What about you, my readers? Do you like sandwiches? Do you like cheese, tomatoes, and spinach in your sandwiches?  

 

Combining these simple ingredients into a sandwich is wonderful.  I encourage you to get creative with quick meals.  You can use chicken or tuna salad as a meat ingredient.  Sandwiches should include ingredients from the recommended food groups, too.

May God bless you with His peace and wisdom, my beloveds.

Hard-Boiled Egg Sandwich

Eggs boiling

At this moment, I have two guests in my home--my nieces.  They are adorable little girls.  One is five months old and the other one is two years-old.  Needless to say, I am short on time.  That's why I asked my hubby to boil me some eggs.

Spices to use

I gathered my simple spices--sea salt and paprika.  After hubby peeled the hard-boiled eggs, I sliced the one egg I was left with.  In the pot, three eggs were boiling.  The longer I took to eat my eggs, the less eggs I ended up with.  My husband and youngest child got the two other ones.

I like hard-boiled eggs.  They contain biotin, which is good for your hair.  I could use some help in that department.  Anyway, paprika is also good for you.  It is considered an anti-oxidant as it contains vitamin C; this is good for your immune system.

The sandwich is just what my tummy needed.  I ate it quickly.  Luckily, my thirteen year-old daughter helped with her young cousins. 

Well, thanks for reading this 

quick blog entry.  

I hope you enjoyed it.

 

What about you, my readers? Have you ever tried a hard-boiled egg sandwich? Would you eat such a sandwich in the evening? Would you add other ingredients? I hope you would consider this simple sandwich. This is a wonderful snack.

May God bless you with His peace and wisdom, my beloveds.
