2. Assemble sandwiches: - Toast bread slices until golden. - Rub garlic clove lightly on inside side




Congratulations to our sandwich contest winner, Catherine Martineau, nurse travel of Menlo Park, California. Out of nearly 800 entries, our friends at wichcraft chose Catherine s Easter Monday Sandwich for a few reasons: It has a simple nurse travel composition, a great pairing of flavors, and it uses leftovers.
Ingredients: 1 medium-sized red pepper (or 4 jarred piquillo peppers from Spain) 4 slices extra sour light rye bread with cumin seeds Wiedemeyer brand if available) 1 garlic clove Mayonnaise Leftover leg of lamb - cold Sheep milk feta 4 sprigs fresh oregano Pepper mill
Directions: 1. Prepare ingredients: - Broil all sides of red pepper until charred. Set aside in paper bag until cool. - Carve pink part of leg of lamb to make 8-12 small thin slices, set aside. - Peel and seed bell pepper - Cut into 8 to 12 wide strips, set aside. - Rinse and pat dry oregano sprigs, peel garlic clove, set aside. - Cut 4 to 6 slices of feta, set aside.
2. Assemble sandwiches: - Toast bread slices until golden. - Rub garlic clove lightly on inside sides, spread mayo on same sides. - Layer lamb, red pepper and feta. - Place oregano sprigs on top (If stems are woody, only use leaves.) - Give a few grinds of fresh black pepper - Cover with other bread slices, press gently with your hands to bind everything together.
