Ok I’m done for now. I think these sandwich recipes give you plenty of different options to play within your kitchen. These will make great sandwiches for any occasion.

Once you prepare any of these sandwich fillings, make sure you store them in an airtight fridge safe container and use them within three days. Also, once you prepare sandwiches chill them in the fridge for 30 mins before serving

Hopefully these ideas will add some ‘umph’ to your sandwich making efforts!

Side Note: These sandwich fillings make great nacho dips too, so now you can make sandwiches and save leftovers for parties!
