Traditionally, sandwiches are made with two or more slices of bread with one or more fillings placed in between. Though there are many types of bread and filler ingredients available to create a sandwich, that's only the beginning.

Sandwich recipes can include an endless choice of ingredients, including chicken or turkey, egg, tuna or other fish, ground beef, ground sausage, pork and more, or can be made entirely vegetarian style with no meat. Also in addition to the traditional sandwich, sandwiches can be served open faced or rolled up in tortillas (called "wraps") or other flat breads. Rolls can be hallowed-out and filled with any number of ingredients and topped with cheese. Below you will recipes for a variety of sandwich recipes.
