Italian Sandwich

I recently had an Italian sandwich that I just have to share with you. You can play with it, change ingredients in and out. Try something totally new and then experiment with the results by testing it out on your friends. They'll love it.

Start with good Italian bread or rolls. My suggestion here is to use a crusty roll with Kalamata olives in it. Then spread fresh, soft cheese, preferably chêvre or fresh mozzarella. Add a layer of baby spinach, then sun dried tomatoes or sun dried tomato paste, and finally a couple of thin slices of prociutto.

I think you could easily go meatless by adding a few slices of cucumber and possibly some alfalfa sprouts, onions or other veggies.

This sandwich is delicious with a simple salad of mixed greens. Top the greens with red onions, Kalamata olives, diced tomatoes, feta cheese and balsamic vinegar.
