Cheesy Gashouse Egg Sandwiches
From cheese expert and author Laura Werlin, crunch meets gooey, melty goodness in this cheesy-fied recipe for gashouse egg sandwiches. You need one.

Venezuelan Bomba
A huge soul-altering sandwich that stuffs ground beef, ham steak, pork shoulder, Swiss, coleslaw and more between an over-sized bun to make your life worth living.

Italian Beef
This recipe for a Chicago staple leaves your taste buds soaring while the rest of you experiences the warm fuzzies. There is such a thing as the perfect sandwich.

Strawberry Cucumber Tea Sandwiches
These treats may be bite-size, but they pack an addictive allure. Cream cheese, strawberry, cucumber, balsamic glaze and dill come together to create a delicious finger sandwich combo.

Vegan Pulled "Pork"
Jackfruit's meaty texture does a fine impression of pulled pork, and that's exactly what this piggy-free sandwich calls for. You'll need a slow cooker, one can of jackfruit, some veggies, your favorite barbecue sauce and a big appetite.

Cuban Sandwich
A satisfying Miami-style take on a local favorite, with instructions on how to execute lechon asado at home. If you can't live without salami or mustard on your Cuban, throw it on there.
