Bourbon Street Deli Sandwich - This is my new favorite sandwich. I have made these every day this week and even ate one for breakfast. I don't even care for salami, ham or bologna but somehow this works. Ok, I have also found my newest favrorite kaiser. At Walmart, they had Everything Kaisers so basically they are like the Everything Bagel but it was on a Kaiser. OMG, delicious! That, combined with the marinated vegetables is just awesome. I am hoping those Everything Kaisers weren't just a fluke and they carry them regularly. Yum!

Beef & Cheese Bagel Square Sandwich - I don't even know what a bagel square is so I just used Onion Bagels. This wasn't too bad but I thought the onion was just too much on this. Make sure you use it sparingly.

Open Faced Monte Cristo - This was delicious! I only made one sandwich and was the only one who tried this. I generally don't care for meat but I wanted to try this the way it is written and I'm so glad I did. If it was healthier I would have made myself another sandwich. I didn't add the powdered sugar as I'm not a real sweets person.
