I assembled this sandwich for lunch one busy Saturday afternoon with fare we had readily available at the house. One of the many great things about a sandwich, apart from it being quick, delicious, easy to eat and easily adaptable to individual desires and what happens to be on hand, is that it is a simple matter to modify the amount of ingredients that would be needed for one person or a crowd.

CHICKEN AVOCADO SANDWICH

chicken avocado sandwich

ciabatta rolls

1 1/2 pounds cooked chicken breast, sliced

8 ounces smoked cheddar cheese, sliced

2 tomatoes, sliced

1/2 pound lettuce

3 avocados

4 tablespoons salsa

2 tablespoons mayonnaise

2 teaspoons chopped cilantro

1 lime, juiced

hot sauce to taste

Peel the avocados and coarsely mash them in a bowl. Fold in the salsa, mayonnaise, cilantro, lime juice and hot sauce.

To assemble the sandwiches, slice the rolls in half and hollow out some of the bread. Spread each half of the rolls with the avocado mixture. Layer with chicken, cheese, tomatoes and lettuce. Replace the top of the rolls.

Enjoy!

ciabatta, egg, gruyere, mortadella, sandwich

Oh my goodness – this sandwich is absolutely heavenly!! I had never heard of mortadella until I read about it in the newspaper – and then came across it in a local supermarket!! I bought a packet of the Italian cured sausage in anticipation of making this incredible sandwich.
We hosted a play date after school, which turned into a spontaneous dinner invitation – as my husband was working late, I wanted to keep dinner simple, and thought it would be the perfect time to try out this recipe. I promptly assembled the sandwich ingredients and got to work. Such a fabulous evening – effortless and fun!!
There were so many layers in this delightful dish, that every bite tasted just a bit different – mouthfuls of wonderful deliciousness!! I am already looking forward to making it again!

MORTADELLA AND EGG SANDWICH

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 green bell peppers
1 tomato, sliced
salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 slices mortadella
1 onion, sliced
2 eggs
2 ciabatta rolls, sliced in half
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
4 slices gruyere cheese
6 pickle rounds
handful of arugula

Heat oven to 350F.
Heat oil in a pan, over medium high heat. Add peppers and fry until black on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a covered bowl. When cool enough to handle, peel and slice open. Scrape away seeds, stem and membrane.
Season tomato slices with salt and pepper.
Wipe pan clean and reduce heat to medium. Add mortadella slices and fry until crisp, about 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside. Add onions, and fry until lightly charred, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
Crack eggs into pan. Fry until whites are just set, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Flip and cook until just sealed, about 20 seconds.
Place sliced ciabatta rolls in the oven, on the racks. Heat through, about 5 to 8 minutes.
To assemble sandwich, spread mayonnaise on each cut side of the roll, top 2 slices with mortadella, egg, cheese, onion, peppers, tomato, pickles and arugula. Top with second slice of ciabatta.
Enjoy!
