Jump to Recipe Video

Sometimes the most refreshing sensation in the world is simply a sandwich and chips! I recall my first time away from home as a nineteen year old college student.

As part of my tuition and housing, I was blessed with Meal Card where I could eat at the cafeteria or various fast food joints around campus. The meals were pretty decent but by my third month in of eating out at every meal, I had an incredible urge for just a sandwich!

It was a taste of familiarity amidst the foreign, simplicity at a time when everything seems so complex. I still remember the crunch of the lettuce and tomato juice spurting down my chin!

Since that time, I've branched out a bit from ham, bacon, lettuce, and tomato! This recipe is one such excursion into the sandwich-y wild side! It's simple... incredibly simple... but is a great way to eat clean on a budget!

Let's make it!
