In the same vein as the sliced/chopped cucumber recipe for a sandwich filling, in midsummer I recommend taking very ripe tomatoes (I can already taste them) and sprinkling chopped fresh basil over them. Maybe you can add a little salt, if you like that sort of thing. Also, very thinly sliced cucumber in plain yogurt with salt and pepper is an incredibly cooling garnish or 'salad'.

Thinking of odd sandwich fillings, my mother often used to cook carrots and onion up together (very good), and then serve them in a plain (even better) white sauce, or a white sauce with a little cheese added (best of all). She would routinely make more than the family would eat with supper, then use the cold carrot-&-onion-in-sauce as a sandwich filling. It was great! The bread never dried out, because the filling was moist, but it wasn't moist enough to make the sandwiches soggy. I used to love them for school lunches, but, of course, all my friends made fun of my weird sandwiches -- and they wouldn't even TRY the stuff, rotten kids! Ah well... --chris

How about a sandwich liberally covered with butter on both sides and filled with raisins and chopped walnuts. You need a lot of butter so the walnuts and raisins stay in place.--Delicious and Nutritious!!! Thanks to Mom.

How about two slices of bread liberally covered with butter, with sliced radishes in between. Disclaimer--I don't eat this, but my husband loves them. Betsy Cvetic ihnp4!drutx!eac

Another good sandwich is cream cheese, avocado, and walnuts on whole wheat. -- Jeff Lichtman at rtech (Relational Technology, Inc.) aka Swazoo Koolak
