Family Sandwich*


"I'll love you, dear, I'll love you till China and Africa meet and the river jumps over the mountain and the salmon sing in the street."
-W.H. Auden

There has been a lot of clamoring for some really easy recipes that can be assembled and on the table within an hour. There has also been some clamoring for me to actually update the site. Both of these seem like pretty reasonable expectations or requests. So let me help.

This is one of my favorite comfort foods. It has been in the family for years, and gets trotted out any chance where we need something delicious that's almost too easy to make. Some would call it a tuna salmon melt, some would call it an abomination. But I call it "love". I've tweaked the recipe a little for my tastes, but it's a simple go-to that I really enjoy.

Let me elaborate on the Legend of Family Sandwich.

*Update: it has come to my attention that because I modified and tweaked the original recipe (seen below) to my tastes, this isn't quite the family recipe. So please keep that in mind as you read.

Next Up: Family Sandwich

It is the most requested recipe between my family members. Every 6 months, someone has to send out an email asking for the recipe from the whole family, trying to figure out who had it last. So I think it's my duty to finally get this in a place where the whole world can enjoy it. Coming soon: present to you the glory of (a tweaked) Family Sandwich.
