Cold Cuts: Your Sandwich Loves Them

This week, since Monday was National Cold Cuts Day, our blog will be dedicated to this yummy cured meat.

Cold cuts come in many different shapes, sizes, and flavors and can be found in pre-packaged containers at your local grocer or they can be sliced to order at the deli.

They can play center stage on your sandwich or they can be served au natural alongside some cheese and deli mustard. 

Interesting fact: the Spanish word, fiambre, means both "cold cut" and "dead body" in Chile and Argentina... 0.o I'd stick to ordering name-specific lunch meats!

The sandwich we made this week was super simple and only takes a couple of minutes to assemble. 

What you'll need

• 2 slices of bread
• 8 slices of your favorite cold cut (we used 2: hard salami and mortadella)
• 2 slices of your favorite cheese (we used provolone)
• 1 piece of lettuce (or if you really like lettuce, use 2!)
• 2 slices of tomatoes
• Beano's Deli Mustard (available at your local grocery store in the deli)

Put one slice of mortadella flat on the bottom piece of bread. Then roll up 6 pieces of salami, and put those on top of the mortadella. Top those with another piece of flat mortadella. Add the cheese, then tomato. Squeeze the Deli Mustard on, then top with lettuce and the top piece of bread!

Like I said, super simple this week! Next week, we'll be up early making a delicious breakfast sandwich since it's going to be lighter earlier... Don't forget to set your clock forward this weekend for Daylight Savings Time!
