Favourite sandwich lunch

At the moment it's the crust/heal of a loaf (no-one else eats them in oor hoos) spread with unsalted butter, then chocolate-hazelnut spread, and sliced banana on top of that. Mug of tea on the side.

A good deal of the time what I eat depends on what needs using up.

Someone I knew many years ago used to like cold mashed potato sandwiches

I recently tried Lidl mayonnaise, and find I prefer it to Hellmans, and it is much cheaper. I buy the Lighter than Light version and use it for coleslaw so that I can be generous without too many calories. I now have 3 jars in my cupboard to keep me going!

AuntieFlo, you have obviously discovered that starting a food-related thread goes down well on GN!

Smoked streaky bacon, lettuce and tomato with Hellmanns mayonnaise on a pannini, or peanut butter and banana on Sainsburys multigrain bread.

Wholemeal bread with Marmite, tahini and tomato.

Pease pudding - there's a memory of school lunches in the 1940s! Just think - a little more effort and they could have invented dal...

simple corned beef and mustard for me but how do you make pease pudding Newist?

A salad cream sandwich is one of my favourites. Has to be white sliced bread.

Bellanonna I would always go for Hellmans myself, but my DD insists the authentic recipe is salad cream and she won't let me have it any other way. Mind you, when she's not here....

Yes my Nana and my Mam used to cook it for us as children, now I continue the tradition

No prizes for guessing where you sampled that delicacy Newist My OH always brings a load home from there to stock up the freezer!!

Sort of only the pease pud, is made from yellow split peas.

A sarnie version of pea and ham soup Newist?

My favorite sandwich is, and always has been, stotty cake (flat bread), home cooked ham, and home made pease pudding.

I hate salad cream, last had some about 50 years ago.
so many yummy sarnies, I can't choose really but..... Hmmmn, chicken and sald with mayo and black pepper may be the winner, followed by cheese and chutney.

It has to be salad cream.

Ham and Coleslaw on Wholemeal is good. Tuna, chopped red onion, (or chopped spring onion), mayo, Cayenne Pepper - that's pretty good too.

Is that salad cream, or Hellmans ?

indinana. - sorry !

indiana the corned beef one sounds lovely. I must try it

As DGD(6) said to me

"Grandma, you have to be patient" - when I was muttering and cursing when having trouble with a lock.

It takes about 2 minutes!

Aren't you too hungry to faff around with all that before you get to eat your lunch?

All time favourite has to be toasted ham and cheese.

Recent fancy I had for brunch in a local café and have re-created at home:

toasted sough-dough, topped with mustard, mashed avocado and a sprinkling of chilli, small-diced feta, chopped black olives & lemon juice.

Looks and tastes really fab!

My favourite has to be brie and grape, which I only indulge in occasionally (it's what keeps it special!). Standard 'fridge staples' fillings are the classic hard boiled egg with lettuce, cucumber and a little mayo, or cheese with home made courgette chutney.
Another good'un is one my DD found in a magazine yonks ago and it's definitely one of her favourites: corned beef, salad cream and plain crisps all mashed up together. Go on, try it, it's great! Oh, and cheddar cheese with Ritz biscuits is quite good
