PB & Homemade J

This one’s been stuck in the Flickr queue for a couple of weeks. Also it wasn’t truly Peanut Butter, but Sunflower Butter. It just seems so awkward to call it a SFB & J.
The jelly is grape and was [...]

Caprese Sandwich

Tomato from the garden, mozzarella from Fiore Di Nonno, whole wheat baguette from Hi-Rise. Slathered with homemade pesto.
Bread could have been better. It was fresh from yesterday, but I think it stiffened up while the sandwich was in the fridge [...]

Turkey & Salami Sandwich w/ Tomato Marmelade

Originally uploaded by jayluker

I made some Tomato Marmalade last week but haven’t had many things that it seemed appropriate to put it on. I had the notion that it would be good on a sandwich with salami and red [...]

Sardine & Tomato Sandwiches

Originally uploaded by jayluker

Mmmmore tomatoes… from the garden, of course. This time accompanying some sardines mashed with a little mustard and lemon juice. Burger buns would not be my first choice of bread for this (maybe some olive Ciabatta or Focaccia), but [...]

Potato & Dill bread is from The Biscuit by way of the Belmont Farmers Market. Tomato is from the garden. Halloumi cheese, nicely grilled, is from last night’s [...]

The Open-Faced Guacwich

I just had the best lunch. I call it the *Open-Faced Guacwich*. I’m kicking myself for not taking a picture (even if it would have been with my crappy phone cam.)
* 1 avocado
* 1 tomato
* 1 lime
* Two slices of sourdough
* small garlic clove
* pinch of salt
Toast the bread. While it’s toasting, mash the avocado [...]
