What is the Weirdest Sandwich You Ever Had?

by zesty on June 2, 2010 · 27 comments


Happy Wednesday to you!!  Ever make or have a crazy sandwich?  I must say I have tried a few unique sandwiches over my time but I don’t think I have anything that is truly outlandish.  What I want to try and accomplish today and over the next couple of days is to gather a large list of unique sandwich ideas so I can try some at home.

Here are a few of the ones I have tried over the years.

Chicken and Jelly

Chicken and red pepper jelly make a great combination.  Over some homemade  toasted baguette bread, spread a little hummus and then layer spinach, chicken and top with red pepper jelly.  Oh so good!

Kicked Up Tuna Salad

Tuna salad, green grapes, apple, celery with white cheddar cheese.

Peanut butter avec Cream Cheese

I do a peanut butter and cream cheese sandwich. I take wheat bread, spread it with peanut butter and softened cream cheese. I eat it cold but it’s even better slightly warmed.

Peanut Butter, Nutella, Apple and Banana

This one is really good!  I use three pieces of bread.  I spread nutella on one side, peanut butter on the other and slice some green apples and top it with some sliced banana and ENJOY!

Here is the deal.  We need to get as many people as we can to submit their crazy sandwich and then we will have tons of ideas when we are in a pinch for lunch or dinner.  Tell all your friends, tweet it and talk about it on facebook. Have a great day and I will see you on Friday!

Take care

zesty

Once I made a wrap with steamed carrots, feta cheese and if I can recall correctly pumpkin seeds. It was kinda weird tasting so try it at your own risk!

You should ask Meghann.. she eats lots of crazy sandwiches!

I really like eggs with cheese, black beans and avocado in a wrap.

The husband eats a sandwich with peanut butter, american cheese, and mayo. I think its gross, but he loves it.

I’ve got a boatload of weird ones since I love to experiment.

I’ve tried

hummus + Jelly
Ricotta + strawberry preserves + Spinach
tempeh + cheese + jam
almond butter + carrot + spinach <– a favorite!

I could go one and on :)

I don’t think any of the sandwiches sound bizarre at all!
I sometimes like to make a white bread, mayo, cold mashed potatoes sandwiches and maybe a few slices of avocado.

Mmmmm some of these ideas are GRAND! I don’t know how “odd” this one is but lately I have been into beets, goat cheese, red onion and avocado! Hits the spot everytime!

I remember my mother always ate peanut butter and sweet pickles. It was actually pretty good and doesn’t get much simpler!

My childhood favorite was Rosen’s rye bread (a Chicago, IL specialty) with caraway seeds, room temperature butter spread over each slice, thinly and finally, sliced pimento stuffed green olives evenly layered on one slice, top with the other and eat. The soft bread with the salty butter and olives was awesome, and made for great lunch table comparisons at school.

I babysat one summer for a girl who ate peanut butter and bologna sandwiches-that I consider to be very weird.

Those sandwiches ALL look delish!
My grandmother used to make me cream cheese & grape jelly sandwiches on white bread all the time when I was a little girl. They were my FAVORITE!

Those look like some fabulous sandwiches. I like tempeh, jam and spinach as well as turkey, cranberries and spinach.

my boyfriend makes kind of cheap student version of a monte cristo; whatever bread is around, with whatever sliced cheese is around (usually swiss), deli black forest ham, and strawberry cream cheese. all grilled together on the george foreman. it’s actually quite good!

oooooh I like the strawberry cream cheese addition.

Mmmm, red pepper jelly. It makes everything amazing. Love that stuff!

I don’t know how weird this sandwich is, but it’s a favourite of mine: hearty, grainy bread, hummus, aged cheddar, and avocado. Such an amazing combination of flavours :)

I’m also partial to bacon, lettuce, and pickles. None of that tomato filled BLT for me!

My all time fav is alfalfa sprouts, spinach, tomato, and Poppy Mango Salad dressing!

I luv reading all the answers above…some are quite good ideas.
I once had sliced turkey, cream cheese, cranberry sauce and alfalfa sprouts on wheat bread. It was weird to me but tasted fantastic.

As a child I use to make mashed potato and string bean sandwichs at the dinner table. My parents thought it was strange but at least I was eating my vegies.

I created a random/weird panini the other day. It was Health Nut bread, blueberry spread, Kerry Gold Cheddar Cheese, and thinly sliced Gala apple: http://apartmentnearchinatown.wordpress.com/2010/05/20/kushi-sushi-and-karamel-sutra/

So delicious.

it may sound gross, but it is delicious

toasted bread, spread peanut butter on them.
and fry an egg, and slice some pickles.
and literally pile them all up!
or if you dont like pickles you can just have peanut butter and fried egg.

oh and if you have some good salami, fry that and add it.
