From Tracie: Have A Sandwich With Emeril

Have A Sandwich With Emeril

When you don't cook (I see you out there, looking at me and giggling), sandwiches are a beautiful thing. Sandwiches can be as simple or as complicated as you desire. They are great for any meal.

I usually go for the Peanut Butter level of complicated. If I'm in a real ambitious mood, I might go for Peanut Butter and Banana. (I see you laughing harder now. Just remember that bananas have to be cut with a knife, and just how dangerous that can be...for someone like me.)

If I'm looking for something a little bit more substantial, I like a nice turkey on rye bread, with provolone, avocados, bacon, a little lettuce, and ranch dressing.

Some people are fabulous chefs, and they still enjoy a good sandwich.

Emeril Lagasse is one of those sandwich-loving people, and he has a new cookbook, Kicked-Up Sandwiches: Stacked With Flavor, with more than 100 yummy sandwich recipes. He has some fancy sandwiches in there, but I was pleased to see peanut butter make at least one appearance, and there are also a few dessert sandwiches (that is something I would brave a knife to make).

Am I making you hungry with all the mentions of sandwiches?

Emeril's Kicked Up Sandwiches Cookbook

If you are in the Orlando area, and would like to spend some time hanging out with Emeril Lagasse, you can see him prepare some of his favorite sandwiches at Macy's Millenia Mall on Thursday, October 25 at 4pm (3rd floor, Home Department). He will also be signing cookbooks purchased at the event. Space is limited, so please RSVP with Macy's to reserve your spot.

What is your favorite sandwich?

  1. Peanut butter and Nutella. This is actually a complicated sandwich, as it involves the use of two knives.

      But it is worth it to have the Nutella goodness. Yum!

      Peanut butter is always a good choice!

    1. I love a good restaurant club sandwich.

      With a nice, crispy pickle on the side.
