  Yummy so far. Highly recommend the pumpkin, mozzarella, and brown butter sandwich recipe (we used butternut squash to good effect here).

Notes about Recipes in this book

• Chicken breast with roasted peppers, mozzarella, and spinach-basil pesto

  • sturlington on February 10, 2015

    This sandwich was fine but nothing stood out. The technique for poaching chicken is a good tip.

    I really liked this sandwich, the spinach pesto is ingenious, it makes for a lighter tasting spread and omits the need for mayo. I made this on homemade white bread and it was a tasty and slightly fancy lunch. Downside is it took me at least an hour to make, but I have plenty of leftovers for the week. Edit: made again, but slathered mayo with the pesto. Mayo gave it a nice creaminess.

• Meatloaf with cheddar, bacon, and tomato relish

  • twoyolks on April 04, 2012

    Good use for leftover meatloaf but not good enough to make meatloaf specifically for this recipe. It also makes a rather tall sandwich.

• Pastrami with sauerkraut, Gruyère, and whole-grain mustard sauce

  • angrygreycat on July 13, 2019

    Fantastic sandwich - will definitely make again as an option for sandwich dinners. Used Boar's Head pastrami & Sauerkraut.

• Sicilian tuna with fennel, black olives, and lemon

  • Kinhawaii on July 19, 2020

    Delicious- although we left out the lemon confit (used some lemon zest) & olives. Even better with homemade tuna confit. Really like the lemon & fennel with the tuna.

• Skillet eggs bruschette

  • sturlington on November 25, 2014

    I found this to be an odd recipe. I will not make it again.

• Stewed apricots and fennel with ricotta, pistachios, and black pepper

  • Vand11 on June 12, 2021

    The star anise really pack a punch. If going to leave overnight, use less star anise.
