Porky's Loin

I made this sandwich with the left over pork loin I had from last night. As much as I love lunch meat, this was definitely a nice break from it.

"Porky's Loin"

• Pork Loin - Seasoned w/Cumin, Paprika, Cumin, Garlic, & Fresh Thyme
• Hot House Tomato
• Iceberg Lettuce
• Spicy Brown Mustard
• Swiss Cheese
• Italian Roll

You should ideally bake this in the oven for about 10 minutes, but I was starving and couldn't wait that long. You want to get the bread nice and flaky!

Cajun Wattle

Can't go wrong with this deliciously spicy turkey sandwich!

"Cajun Wattle"

• Cajun Turkey Breast
• Provolone
• Cucumber
• Cherry Tomatoes
• Pepperoncini
• Sprouts
• Homemade Cajun Mayo (w/Cayenne, Paprika, Onion & Garlic Powder, Thyme, Basil, Cloves, Salt, White & Black Pepper, Chili Powder, Ground Mustard)
• Sourdough
  

I didn't think of it at the time, but this would be fantastic on homemade Cajun Cornbread!

Mexican BLT

I learned something very interesting since moving to Raleigh. You can buy avocados here that are as big as your hand! Actually called a Slimcado, these massive and delicious "macados" are grown in Florida and have 35% fewer calories than your typical Hass avocados. I made a batch of my famous guacamole last night for tacos using only one slimcado (same price as an organic Hass) and there was enough left over for lunch today and tomorrow!

"Slimcado"

Since I just got a new pack of bacon, I decided to make a Mexican BLT to utilize the extra guacamole. Don't be thrown off by the sour cream, it was stupid delicious and comes highly recommended!

"Mexican BLT"

• Black Pepper Turkey Breast
• Guacamole
• Sunrise Tomato
• Thick Cut Peppercorn Bacon
• Pepperjack Cheese
  
• Lettuce
• Sour Cream
• Pumpernickle
  

Three Little Piggies

If you're a pork lover like myself, the layers of black forest ham, pepperoni, and salami makes sandwich lovers feel like they have dies and gone to hog heaven!

"Three Little Piggies"

• Black Forest Ham
• Sandwich Pepperoni
• Hard Salami
• Pepperjack Cheese
  
• Hot House Tomato
• Banana Pepper
• Lettuce
• Stone Ground Dijon Mustard
• Salt, Pepper, Oregano, Basil
  
• Pumpernickel Bread

Turkey Hameroni

If you love to eat meat, tomato, and mozzarella, then you will love this sandwich!

"Turkey Hameroni"

• Sandwich Pepperoni
• Black Pepper Turkey Breast
• Boar's Head Black Forest Ham
• Fresh Mozzarella
  
• Sunrise Tomato
• Cucumber
• Salt & Pepper
• Stone Ground Dijon Mustard
• Mayonnaise
• Wheat Bread

Next time I make a sandwich along these lines, I will definitely switch the ham out for some crispy thick cut bacon. Maybe marinade the tomato and mozzarella before hand and on a grainier bread.

Stuffed Purple Pepper Wrap

This was the first time I have ever used a purple bell pepper. Turns out that it tastes very similar to green bell peppers, just a little bit sweeter. The combination of textures and flavors in the wrap were amazing and I will definitely be trying numerous variations of this idea.

"Stuffed Purple Pepper Wrap"

• One Purple Bell Pepper
• Fresh Mozzarela
• Fresh Sunrise Tomatoes
• Fresh Rosemary
• Boar's Head Black Forest Ham
• Banana Peppers
  
• Spicy Brown Mustard
• Olive Oil
• Salt & Pepper
  
• Flour Tortilla

Cut the top of the purple pepper off and clean out the insides. Chop up the mozzarella, tomato, rosemary, and banana pepper and mix in a bowl with a little bit of olive oil, kosher salt, and fresh ground black pepper. Heat the stuffed pepper in the oven on 425 degrees for about 5 minutes. While the pepper cooks, grab a tortilla and spread some mustard in the center then add the ham on top. Remove the pepper from the oven and place it ontop of the ham. Roll the whole thing up like a burrito and stick it back in the oven for another 2 minutes. Enjoy!

BBQ Chicken & Tomato Sandwich

Holy crap! This is the most delicious sandwich I have made in quite some time. I suggest eating this for dinner, as you will need time to recover from the sandwich's sheer awesomeness.

"BBQ Chicken & Tomato Sandwich"

• Two BBQ chicken breasts (marinated in my secret bbq blend, but if you have to buy... Sweet Baby Ray's or Stubb's are two delicious and cheap options)
• Fire roasted Sunrise Tomatoes
• Grilled Vidalia Onion
• Lettuce
• Garlic French Bread (homemade with fresh garlic, rosemary, secret spice blend and butter)

Everything on this sandwich can be grilled, except the lettuce of course. For maximum flavor, I recommend the use of a charcoal grill with hickory wood to give it that nice smokey flavor.

Leftover Pork Chop Sandwich

Don't let your leftovers go to waste! Make lunch out of it! This is super simple and can be made in two minutes. Add a side of ridiculously crushed up chips and a pickle and you've got yourself a meal.

• Fresh Mozzarella
  
• Mountain Delight Tomato
• Cucumber
• Stone Ground Dijon Mustard
  
• Thai Chili Sauce
• Wheat Bread

• Vidalia onion
• Roma Tomato
