who wants a sandwich?
We've got The Most Perfect Caprese Sammy, Hot Honey Mustard Turkey Sandwich, Green Goddess Slaw Sammy, & The Best Egg Salad Sandwich (Literally)
Hi cuties!!! How was your weekend been?? It was my husband, Thomas’s, birthday this past week and to celebrate we had a sports day with friends!! In which I provided a sh*t ton of sandwiches for, because duh 🙂↕️. I don’t think anything screams summer more than eating sandwiches in a park. I made four different types of sandwiches and they were (almost) all gone by the end of the night. I have all of the recipes below, and cannot wait for y’all to try them out!! I’m gonna give a sort of disclaimer though real quick, and say that not all of the recipes are measured perfectly. Some of the sandwiches needed specific measurements, but most just went off pure vibes. But honestly, I feel like that’s how most sandwiches should be… based off vibes and vibes alone 🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️. I’m also assuming you’re not going to be making as many sandwiches and I did, so measurements can vary based on the size of your sammy lol. Anyways, I guarantee they will all turn out delicious no matter what!!! CANT WAIT FOR YALL TO TRY!! Luv ya & see u next week xoxooo 💋
All of the sandwiches I made are in this video, and all of the recipes are below:

The Best Egg Salad Sandwich (Literally) -

Green onion
Directions:
Fill a large pot halfway full of cold water and set on the stovetop
Add all of the eggs into the water, and set the stove to medium-high heat
Once the water is boiling, set a timer for 8-10 minutes (the longer it boils, the firmer the yolks will be)
After 8-10 minutes, immediately transfer all of the eggs to an ice bath
Let the eggs sit in the ice bath for about 5 minutes, then peel the shells off all of the eggs
Once the eggs are completely peeled, transfer to a medium sized bowl
Add in 2 TBSP mayo, 1 TBSP mustard, and all of the seasonings (measure with your heart <3)
Add in 1-2 TBSP of chopped green onion and mix until fully combined
Add to the bread of choice and enjoy!!
Green Goddess Slaw Sammy -
Ingredients:
Slaw:
1 medium cabbage
2 green apples
1 fennel bulb
1 TBSP fennel fronds (the feathery, leafy tops of the fennel plant)
3 TBSP chopped chives
Juice of 1 lemon
1 TBSP white wine vinegar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp hot honey
1 TBSP mayo
Hot Honey Mayo:
3 TBSP mayo
2 tsp hot honey
Extras:
Provolone
Parmesan
Directions:
Start by chopping the cabbage into thin slices
You can also add the chopped cabbage to a food processor and pulse for a few seconds to speed up the chopping process (don’t pulse for too long though, we don’t want the pieces to be too small… I recommend 2-3 pulses)
If you are not using a food processor, you can chop/slice the cabbage by hand
Once the cabbage is chopped, transfer it to a large bowl
Finely dice 2 green apples and add to the bowl as well
Remove the stalks from the fennel, and chop the bulb into thin strips
Dice the strips of the fennel into small pieces and add to the bowl as well
Add the chopped chives to the bowl
To a small bowl add the juice of 1 lemon, 1 TBSP white wine vinegar, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp hot honey, and mix. Once mixed, add to the large bowl of cabbage/apples/fennel/chives (aka the “slaw”)
Mix it all together until the slaw is evenly coated
Finely chop 1 TBSP of fennel fronds (the feathery, leafy tops of the fennel plant), and add to the bowl. Add 1 TBSP of mayo as well
Mix until thoroughly combined & then set the slaw to the side and let sit for at least 10 minutes
For the hot honey mayo, add the mayo and hot honey to a jar or bowl and mix until fully combined
Preheat oven to 350F
Lay two slices of bread flat on a baking sheet. To one slice of bread, add provolone
Transfer the bread to the oven and bake for a few minutes, or until the cheese is melted (I like to bake mine for about 5 minutes)
Once the cheese is melted, add a few spoonfuls of hot honey mayo on top of the provolone. Spread evenly
Next, add a few large spoonfuls of the slaw as well. Then top the slaw with a bunch of shredded parmesan, top with the other piece of bread, and enjoy!!
