What's your "go-to" sandwich?

[raleighnut]

White bread, ham tomato and English mustard is probably my go to because its quick easy tasty and we will inevitably have the ingredients.
White bread, corned beef and pickle is another favourite.

I say White bread because I like rye bread but most of it gets wasted for just a very occasional sandwich..we love toast so White it is.

Dunno if they do it out your way but the Co-op do a lovely wholemeal 'toastie' loaf that even makes lovely sarnies too, it's a brown loaf that doesn't taste like it was Knitted.

Home made roll, chicken, a slither of mayonnaise and some sea salt, rocket.

Cheese and Branston pickle

For my Boxing day walk roday, sarnies made with left-over roast beef from yesterday, a slathering of horseradish, and just to scare the unadventurous, maybe some of the sprouts (shredded).

mozzarella to supplement the delicious pineapple

For me, mozzarella is best served grilled and I don't like canned pineapple, but really like fresh - !
Yes, I'm weird - !

The current crack cocaine of sandwiches here chez Casa Reynard is...

A toastie filled with: cooked & shredded turkey, a chopped salad onion, mature cheddar cheese and sriracha mayo.

I know people who are convinced left-over food is unsafe. They throw it away, the fools.

Our Christmas Day beef has provided many meals and sarnies in recent days; might finish it later today.
But we had 14 guests yesterday so we have a whole new load of leftovers rammed into the fridge like some kind of edible Jenga game, complete with occasional avalanches.

Best of the most recent food is the large gammon joint I boiled & roasted yesterday, with a honey & mustard glaze; so I've got 3 litres of stock for making soup, and a week of ham sarnies to look forward to!

I have finished off the turkey!!!
It has been sitting in the fridge since - obviously - 25th
As is traditional I made it into a curry and the remains have been frozen for use over the next few weeks

When I was with my ex we used to spend Christmas at her mother's house. She only had a very small kitchen and small fridge so there was no room in the fridge for the turkey
It used to live in the oven once everything had cooled off
generally lasted until several days with no problems and no-one ever died or got ill despite it never been kept cool
funny thing was that my ex was VERY fussy about health and sell by dates and all that - but she never considered whether or not the turkey should be kept at room temperature for that long!!!

People are weird (especially my ex!!)

We have a standard approach to christmas. Boxing day is cold meats day - so the Turkey, Pork and Gammon, pigs in blankets, roast potatoes etc left over from Christmas Day. The day after is affectionately known as "pie day". The remaining left over meat (and veggie meat substitute) is chopped and baked into pies - one for the vegetarians and one for the carnivores.

My parents had a front porch which was very poorly insulated so was always nearly the same temp as outside. Our turkey always lived out there along with the leftover veg and salad. We'd pick at it from boxing day until new year's Day (which was turkey curry day) with no probs. I always said to mum "you realise it's warmer than 4degrees c out there?" But no-one really cared

Oh, I'm with you there. Especially being an inveterate yellow sticker-er. It's a sobering thought that I buy a lot of my food at the point where quite a few people would be wanging it in the bin...

We actually has a guinea fowl on Christmas Day. Still a little bit of that left, and some stuffing. The turkey meat is from the two free range bronze turkeys that I bought on YS on Christmas Eve, that I de-boned, jointed and froze, before using the carcasses, giblets (except for the livers*) - and the guinea fowl carcass - to make a big pot of stock. And then picking the remaining meat from the carcasses before finally shoving the bones into the maw of the heating. I've used every bit of the birds except for the cackles and gobbles!

Most of the cooked turkey meat has also been portioned out and frozen, but I've kept some back for a) more of those sandwiches, and b) to make a curry. Although how much will survive to actually end up in the curry is anyone's guess

I will be making a pie of some description over the weekend I think, probably with ham, stuffing and leek. And probably the last of a piece of stilton that's been lurking in the back of the fridge.

I *did* buy a tomahawk steak for New Year, but that's been shoved into the freezer as well. I'd rather take it out when I'm in a position to enjoy it, rather than clearing up leftovers - only two Humans and one cat here. Although the leftovers have been very tasty, so no complaints there!

* livers have been frozen to have later with bacon, onions, fried eggs etc...

Fish fingers with whatever is in the fridge.

 

[Dadam]

I have recently rediscovered the joys of a fish finger buttie. For the purist approach, lightly buttered bread (ideally white), salt and a good splash of vinegar. However I've also been experimenting with the addition of a runny fried egg and splash of chilli sauce! 😋

 

[Animo]

Stilton, spring onion, mango chutney.

Or pate, gherkin, tomato and a little chutney.

No particular 'favorite' as it depends on the mood I'm in when I fancy one - !
