I have always loved packing a picnic and taking off for a day of adventure. Bringing your own food allows you to explore more desolate areas without having to worry about grabbing something from a local restaurant.
I guess you could say this is my version of a Dagwood sandwich, full of varying meats and cheeses, minus the olive on top; feel free to add it if you like. This particular version is a family favorite. I vary it slightly for myself and the kids, but this is how my husband prefers it. With a side of grapes it keeps him going throughout the afternoon and I get to keep reading my book.
Adding extra flavor to sandwiches can be tricky. Big bold tastes are often coupled with items that make a sandwich soggy. I have found adding flavorful cheese a great way to get the taste I want without losing the texture and crunch for a sandwich I might prepare ahead. It’s a win-win situation.
Load up each bread slice with a different variety of cheese and enjoy a memorable sandwich taste.
I wrote this recipe for one sandwich. You can double, triple and quadruple it depending on how many you would like to serve.
If you are heading out this holiday weekend or anytime this summer, I hope you get a chance to pack this sandwich and enjoy with family and friends.

If I might suggest, use Boar’s Head Salsalito Turkey to push it vervthe top.
