Meatball Sandwich Recipe: Use Up Those Leftover Meatballs!
October 15, 2009 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
In truth, there’s hardly a recipe for a meatball sandwich. At its simplest, you take a French or hoagie roll, put a few meatballs on it, ladle some spaghetti sauce on it and eat. If you want to get a bit fancier, you’d use your own homemade meatballs. My favorite recipe uses ground pork and [...]
Ham, Cheese and Apple Panini
October 6, 2009 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
I made some macaroni and cheese tonight for dinner but felt like we needed a bit more as well, plus I was bringing dinner over to my broken-leg neighbor. I decided on a small panini and brought him some vegetable soup from last night as well. I had some ham and cheddar cheese as the [...]
Chicken Panini Sandwich with Roasted Red Peppers

I really made too many chicken cutlets the other night. However, they are good simply reheated. Last night I used some up in a
Really Good Panini with Cold Cuts and Provolone
September 8, 2009 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
I read Rachel’s Italian Deli Panini recipe and my mouth was watering. I don’t really know any good Italian deli’s around here and don’t often buy good cold cuts but I went to our Safeway and picked up some ham, capocolla and salami, plus a jar of artichoke hearts. I had some provolone cheese at [...]
Easy French Dip Sandwich Recipe
September 3, 2009 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
Here’s my normal French Dip Sandwich recipe, but it requires hours of time, a crock pot and perhaps more beef than you might like (although it does freeze well, especially if you freeze it in the jus/juice). Driving home from school today, youngest and I talked about dinner and settled on French dip sandwiches. We [...]
Sort-of Buffalo Chicken Sandwich

Since neither of us were starving tonight but we still needed to eat dinner, I opted for a sandwich. One of us had had a chicken taco salad for lunch so I didn’t want to do another “salad with meat” thing. I had these fantastic breaded chicken cutlets from the other night so went for [...]
Chicken Salad Sandwich: Simple is Good
May 21, 2009 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
Sometimes the simplest dinners are so good! I had barbecued some chicken leg quarters the other night, after marinating them in the best chicken marinade. We had one leg quarter left over. Last night for dinner I turned it into chicken salad for some great sandwiches. Pull the skin off the chicken and pull the [...]
Italian Style Sloppy Joes

The genesis of this is from Rachael Ray Express Lane Meals: What to Keep on Hand, What to Buy Fresh for the Easiest-Ever 30-Minute Meals, but I found her version very bland. Intriguing and oh so close, but bland. I added some Worcestershire sauce and ketchup and suddenly it was GREAT! Can’t vouch for the [...]
Chicken Cacciatore Sandwiches
January 6, 2009 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
These were inspired by Rachel Ray’s recipe in Classic 30-Minute Meals: The All-Occasion Cookbook but I modified based on the fact that I was only serving 2 people and used up what I had on hand rather than her specifics. As I often do, I followed the spirit of the recipe rather than the letter. [...]
My Patty Melt Recipe
October 14, 2008 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
My youngest asked for patty melts for dinner tonight. I had, as a matter of fact, a few hamburger patties in the freezer, mixed up and formed the last time I made a bunch of burgers. So I pulled two out to defrost as I started to saute some sliced onions in butter. I didn’t [...]
