I got my first compliment on one of my sandwiches on the line yesterday. I usually get a mention about one of the salads I make cause it is a person's personal favorite or something but no one ever compliments a sandwich. We had a prime rib sandwich as well as a feta spinach sandwich for the vegetarians. Quite a few omnivores had the feta sandwich and one said that it was 'awesome' and another one said that they tried a bit from someone else and it was 'excellent' and she wished that we had put the sandwich at the front of the line instead of the end because by the time that she got down to the end her plate was full and she couldn't have her own full one. So figure if I get the compliment, then it must be a good sandwich, so here is the recipe if anyone is interested:
Feta and spinach sandwich
Red peppers
yellow peppers
spinach
feta cheese
sharp cheddar cheese sliced (I used medium orange cheddar that was grated)
sliced tomato
garlic butter
french bread, sliced
salt and pepper to taste
cut the peppers in to strips and stir fry them until slightly warm but still crisp. Add in spinach and stir to let the heat from the peppers heat up the spinach.
butter your french bread with the garlic butter and toast.
mix in the feta cheese to the pepper/spinach mixture and prepare to assemble.
Melt the cheddar cheese on the garlic toast in the oven till gooey then top with the pepper/spinach/feta mixture. Top with the slice of tomato and salt and pepper to taste.
Now, the original recipe called for this to be done closed with another piece of toast on top but I left it opened and it turned out pretty decent. I let the heat from the steam line and the heat lamp heat up the tomato on it's own (since it was going to be sitting out there for an hour and if I heated it up before hand it would have just gone to mush) but I suppose if you are eating it right away at your house you could put the whole assembled sandwich in to the oven for a few more minutes to heat up the tomato, or eat it with a cold tomato if you prefer.
I didn't have one since it was hard to keep them on the line themselves and was running short on the french bread to make the sandwich with...plus, well, unless there is a meat on a sandwich it is just a salad in my mind with bread in it.
