My all time fave and haven't had one in a very long time, would be a soft, fresh onion roll piled with deli shaved black forest ham, extra swiss cheese, mayon on top bun, brown mustard on the bottom bun, thin sliced pickle, and a few red onion rings.

Zapped in microwave for maybe 30 seconds. GREAT!

IMO, nothing beats a hot Reuben: corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut and Russian dressing on toasted rye bread.

you have to get it imported from England!
I thought it's American.
I think it is originally British. Heinz has a plant in California, where they make it, it is not sold in Ohio, so I found it at amazon under British foods and bought it.

I'm really not a sandwich person.  When I take lunch to work, it's typically a sandwich because they are fast and easy to carry, but that's pretty much it. Usually a sliced turkey or sliced roast beef. (I make them ahead of time and freeze them)

Occasionally I will have a sub sandwich from Subway. Either veggie or chicken teryaki.

If I do buy a sandwich at work, it's typically chicken salad.

Once or twice a year I'll make a grilled cheese at home.

And I do like tuna melts but rarely make them.

I enjoy hamburgers at home or when out; I guess they are a sandwich in a way.

A well done grilled cheese with well done bacon inside.  I like the old fashioned kind, you know, Wonder Bread, regular American cheese, decent bacon like Oscar Mayer.  I use butter on the outside, but recently learned you can give it a light coating of mayo instead (Hellman's or Duke's here too).  Works great.  

Even better?  On fresh sourdough, with well aged grated Vermont cheddar cheese, and slathered inside with a mixture of dijon mustard/mayo/fresh chives and lots of cracked black pepper.  Hold the bacon on that one.

PB&J for something quick, but I make a homemade chicken salad that I think is pretty good.

A list of the ingredients:

chicken breasts, boneless/skinless, baked and chopped finely  (I use a chopper)

Miracle Whip

a bit of celery, very finely chopped

red onion, again finely chopped

sweet pickle relish, drained

salt

black pepper

and the secret ingredient:  a pinch of nutmeg!  

I made up this recipe myself, so I don't do exact measurements.  I also make turkey salad in the same basic way after Thanksgiving.

Ok so a new restaurant just opened called Craft Kitchen. We went yesterday. I  ate a BLT salad. But it was like an open face BLT. 1 slice of texas toast, fried green tomato, melted white cheese , lots of bacon, avocado, roasted corn , dandelion greens, and a sweet and sour dressing. It was so good. I ate half for lunch and brought half home for dinner.

When I fix my own sandwich I really like Braunschweiger and american cheese on white bread with mayo. Side of chips and a glass of milk. Growing up we called it liverwurst or liver sausage. Funny thing is I do not like liver at all.

Thanks for the recipe!

I was trying to thank Nurseangel for the recipe. I will defiantly be trying it because I really like chic salad. For some reason it didn't work the first time I tried to quote Nurseangel

I haven't made a sandwich in a while, or this particular one, but I love a turkey w/ avocado, tomato, roasted red peppers, & cheese, but toasted, so the cheese is melted.  I think I've made that like a grilled cheese before. YUM!

i don't eat sandwiches all that often. my absolute
favorite would be a fried egg sandwich with cheese. i also like grilled cheese
How do you make a fried egg sandwoch
the way i make a fried egg sandwich is to fry two eggs and at the end of frying them place a slice of cheese over the top and turn off the heat. i use untoasted bread for my fried egg sandwiches, but you can use toasted bread too. i place the fried eggs with cheese on one slice of bread and set the second slice of bread on top.

another popular breakfast type food is the breakfast burrito. there are many variations for a breakfast burrito. sometimes i'll fry a couple eggs, top with a slice of cheese, place them on a small flour tortilla (can be warmed slightly in the oven first) and roll it up. i call that a breakfast burrito, though it's a very basic one. you can use scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, veggies -- just about any combination you can think of.

one of my favorite childhood breakfasts was "egg in the middle". http://www.itsallabouttheyummy.com/egg-middle/   my mom always fried the egg in the middles in bacon grease. they were very good!

I thought a sandwich was eaten withb hands but this is obviously knife and fork. It sounds delicious.
No buttito's here unfortunately. I'd love to try Mexican food.
No bacon grease here either but of course butter can be used.
Thank you for all your breakfasts.

good point -- the fried egg sandwich can be eaten with hands (made easier because i always fry my eggs so the yolks are hard), and the breakfast burrito is generally eaten with hands. but the egg in the middle is a knife and fork kind of meal.

i did think maybe there would not be bacon grease where you live. yes, butter or oil can be used to fry the egg in the middle.
