Coleslaw

I think that's normally considered "not a sandwich anymore".

Coleslaw is great with baked potato and grated cheese. A good vegetarian lunch 🙂

GREAT call PQ.

Don't forget plenty of ground pepper!

Hahaha, true. The magic's in the combined/complimenting flavors.

Well, there's usually still something on it. If I make the sandwich myself, there won't be anything else than cheese; if I get the sandwich somewhere, there's usually some butter and/or mayonnaise on it, and sometimes cheese.

Edit: Actually what I said above isn't entirely true, I sometimes make sandwiches with some vegetarian spread or fish spread, too. Or even with butter if I have some.

Noodles, you'll never know the true joy of eating a beautiful sandwich if you keep doing that. Add some flavour! Complimentary or contrary, they're both good.

Take one hoagie and call me in the morning.

Well, if you ever decide to explore the wonderful world of the sandwich, remember...no iceberg lettuce for christ's sake. Red onion is your friend. One slice of cheese goes a long way, too much you'll miss the other stuff. Don't be afraid to mix condiments, eg mayo/mustard.

I looked up 'hoagie', apparently it's with meat, so I wouldn't eat it. I have eaten sandwiches with things like lettuce, tomatoes or other weird stuff on them - sometimes taking them apart isn't really an option, so it's not that I haven't tried. It's more the different textures than the flavours that bother me. Crisp stuff on soft bread - ew!

Why no lettuce? 😕

Now that sounds better, although I probably wouldn't like most types of coleslaw.

I used to make a coleslaw with finely shredded white cabbage, grated carrot and a small amount of finely diced red onion. The ratio of those ingredients is personal choice. I bound it together with Crosse & Blackwell Waistline salad cream - it's a vinegar and oil dressing with no eggs and apparently half the calories of regular salad cream (for those being careful about their intake!). Extras can included, such as diced apple, sultanas, madarin oranges etc 🙂

It sounded okay without the extras... My mother used to make a sauerkraut salad with apple and cheese. I love sauerkraut, but that was an awful combination.

I would never utter such an atrocity.

I meant, no iceberg lettuce, go for the boston, or at least the romaine.

Butter lettuce is best (IMO), but I do like cold, crispy iceberg lettuce on a burger.

Iceberg lettuce with a good dressing (lemon, sour cream or yoghurt, mustard, pepper, herb salt, maybe some fresh chives, and possibly a very tiny amount of sugar) - mmmh! But not on a sandwich, of course.

I am having a piece of bread with cheese now (not a sandwich because there's no bread on top).
