Snacks and sandwiches

[oblio]

For some reason, I really love sandwiches. I'm a grazer (and also lazy) so I like items to grab or throw together easily.  I have a couple sandwich cookbooks for new combinations, which is nice, but some of them take an awful lot of prep time for a sandwich. Every time I make a grocery list I try to come up with some new regular items to add for snack and sandwich ideas and I've been uninspired lately. What are your nontraditional snack/sandwich foods?

One of my favorite sandwiches is chopped hard boiled eggs, green olives, and miracle whip.

Turkey, cucumbers, spinach, and cream cheese (with herbs/spices mixed into it if I feel fancy).

Roast beef, roasted red peppers, red onions, goat cheese. (Maybe horseradish too, or maybe balsamic, if I feel fancy.)

Turkey or chicken, avocado (possibly mashed up with salt & pepper and smeared on. You know what's coming. If I feel fancy.), red pepper, spinach.

I am all about specific components...a major protein, at least two veggies, and some kind of "glue" to season/hold it all together. 

Hummus is also a good one to add. I try to keep it easy, things that take little or no prep or are on hand, because yeah, it does feel like a lot of work for a sandwich at some points!

These are good:

[witchypoo]

toasted onion roll + muenster or provolone or swiss or whatever sliced cheese you have + at least two sliced tomatoes + garlicky mayo + salt and pepper + some arugula

[Run Amok]

Tomato, red onion, dijon mustard, toasted or broiled. With or without and egg. YUM!

Carmelized onions, roasted veggies, melty cheese

[picote]

Peanut butter and dill pickle on toasted wheat...so good!

Green chili pimiento cheese on a grilled sandwich with bacon.
Leftover (home-made) macaroni and cheese on a grilled sandwich with bacon.  Maybe even a little sriracha.
Turkey, sliced apple, gruyere, dijon mustard, and honey, grilled sandwich.
Tuna salad made with the tune, mayo/miracle whip, chunks of Granny Smith apple, and raisins.
Italian grilled cheese which is basically 2 sided bruschetta - olive oil, sliced roma tomatoes, garlic salt, basil, and mozarella, grilled.

Mozzarella, roasted red peppers, chopped artichoke hearts, baby spinach, grilled

ETA: Actually, I often grill the two sides separately (bread, cheese, peppers and bread, cheese, artichokes), then put the spinach in between after grilling so it doesn't get too wilted.

Can I make a soup with that?

It's extra-delicious on rosemary olive oil bread. Just so you know.

Maybe??? You could definitely combine them all together with penne to make a nice pasta dish.

These are good:

I love those!  ... especially "Pieces" not "Nuggets" !!

They're addictive.

I love hummus and spinach on my sandwiches.

But I usually like mine simple. Turkey ham cheese with sriacha mayo.
