Ham Sandwich on Toasted Multi- Grain Bread
A delicous sandwich of roasted ham from the deli, with thinly sliced cucumber,
slivers of jalopeno, lettuce, cilantro,
and with a mayo-plum fruit spread.
Go ahead take a bite! I did!

Turkey and Cheese Sandwich on Toasted Multi-Grain Bread
Another mouth watering sandwich of oven roasted turkey from my local deli.
With mushroom-onion compote, thinly sliced cucumbers, lettuce, cilantro, some
slivers of jalopeno for a hint of heat, and with a mayo-horseradish spread.
You just want to gobble it all up! Somebody did!
Mushroom & Onion Compote:
1/2 cup of sliced mushrooms
1 medium size vidalia onion (thinly sliced)
olive oil
A pinch of salt to add to the onions and mushrooms
On a hot pan with olive oil, saute the onions until slightly brown and carmelized, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and thoroughly incorporate, cover and simmer for about 5 minutes for it to cook in its own juices. Uncover and simmer for another 5 minutes or so until most of the juices are absorbed. Let cool.
Mayo-Horseradish Spread:
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons hot horseradish
1 teaspoon of paprika
Whisk in a bowl until thoroughly incorporated.( you may increase the amount according to the number of sandwiches you are making- of course it's always nice to make a lot and store in the fridge for the next time).
Mayo Plum Fruit Spread:
1 tablespoon of your favorite fruit spread
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
Whisk until incorporated and set aside until ready to use.
