Look, I’m gonna level with y’all. I’ve been here a little over 24 hours and yet to find out what anyone’s preferred sandwich is. As is known, sandwiches are the glue holding our society together, so this sad state cannot be allowed to continue.

In a short time, the juiciest of tomatoes will begin to drop off the vine here in the US, and the first, the finest, the primordial sandwich, the BLT proper, will grace us with its presence.

But until then, what are we to do? Slap undressed turkey on wheat? Like cavemen?? Tell me about your sandwiches. Inspire your fellow… fediverse…ians?

    If you’re going to mess around with sandwiches, the best sandwich I’ve had is the Monte Cristo. If cooking isn’t out of the question then, take some shredded up cooked turkey, some medium thickness deli ham, black forest or honey ham. You’ll also need two slices of bread, slices of Swiss cheese or gouda, 1 egg beaten with a tablespoon of whipped cream.

    It has to come together pretty fast, but the easiest way to do it is to toss the ham and turkey into the frying pan as it warms up while dipping your slices of bread in the egg mix on one side, when the turkey is getting warm and the ham is sizzling a bit. You know your pan is hot enough. Add some butter to the pan after you have removed the turkey and ham. Add the now warm turkey onto the non eggy side of the bread then a slice of cheese than the ham than the other slice of bread with egg on outside. Add it to the pan and fry both sides. Since it cooks so fast, there isn’t enough time to heat the turkey all the way through and by heating the meats first, they melt the cheese fast and you get a warm gooey inside and fried egg bread outside.
