Lets start by saying how under-appreciated sandwiches are. As a food category, they have such an average reputation. When you think of a sandwich it is usually like “uhg fine. I guess I will have a sandwich today… boringggg.”
I am here to resurrect the glory of the sandwich!!! Yes, the glory. That word was chosen carefully and deliberately. When I make a sandwich, it is basically an art. (If I do say so myself 😉 ) It is a way I can put all my favourite things between two beautiful pieces of artisan bread. What is not to like?!
The bread? The carbs? Get over it!! Seriously. You will not (I repeat) will not get fat if you eat a slice of bread. Denying yourself of bread all the time is the ticket to over-indulging. So as I always say, remember to have balance in your diet. Sandwiches are a thing of beauty, and also so healthy. Don’t get hung up on the “carbs.”
Okay so back to it. Here’s what’s in my sandwich du-jour.
- Terra breads green olive bread (its so freaking good)
- Goat cheese
- Thin sliced purple onion
- Tomato
- Roasted turkey (<– healthiest meat option by far!)
- Sprouts
- Spinach
- Avocado
- Salt/pepper to taste
And there you have it. Sandwiches are the easiest thing to throw together, and they can taste so amazing if you use the right ingredients!
Happy sandwich-ing friends!

Looks delicious! What kind of camera and lighting do you use? I’ve been thinking about getting a better flash to use with my GH4.
Thanks Theresa! I use a Nikon D60, and no flash here 🙂

Yay!! So glad you like it Alexandra 🙂
That looks so delicious!!! Very impressed and I wonder if I my children would eat more turkey sandwiches if I spruced them up like this a bit?
It is alll about sprucing them up! 😀
First off amazing kitchen and photography! I agree, when you take the time to make your own sandwich with healthy and delicious ingredients that you would get a store you realize it tastes better and way less expense! I have to say I enjoy splurging on really good olive bread!
