Don’t get me wrong – I like to cook – but a lot times I just want a quick meal that is filling and delicious. Usually hot sandwiches meet that requirement. And, I have a Foreman grill that I also use as a panini press. One sandwich I like to make is what I call the Heartburn Hotel.
Ingredients:
- Two slices of rye bread
- Sara Lee Buffalo Turkey
- Smoked Ham
- Pepperoni
- Spicy Mustard
- Cheddar Cheese
I usually take each slice of turkey and ham and dry it off with a paper towel. Then, I just stack the deli meats and top it off with the pepperoni and the cheddar cheese. I let the Foreman heat up while I do this, so that my sandwich grills faster. When the cheese is melted and looking delicious, it’s done. Pry open one side and apply a generous amount of the spicy mustard.
Tip: Wrap your deli meats in paper towels once when you get home from the grocery store and then a second time about a day later. It will keep them fresh a few days longer than usual.
What are you actually biting into when you are going for a few easy slices of deli meats? It will depend on the type of meat you chose. Ideally, the food we eat should be as close to its natural creation as possible, but unless it is freshly cooked, the ingredient list can be a lot more than that!
