I used the remaining tomato sauce I cooked with Italian sausage last
weekend and made a nice hot "Italian" sandwich. I used a small crusty
"French" roll, sliced and lightly (yes, lightly) drizzled with EVOO
toasted under the oven broiler. I spooned a little of the tomato sauce
on top of each half then added sliced Provolone cheese sprinkled a
little Italian seasoning on top. Under the broiler it went until the
cheese melted.

Took it back out and lowered the rack and turned the oven on. I heated
it through again with the top piece of bread on.

It's no masterpiece but it was a really good tasting sandwich!

Fact is, half the sandwich filled me up. I'll be wrapping the other
half up to reheat for lunch tomorrow. :)

That looks good; almost like a little french bread pizza. I rarely buy
frozen ready food, but every once in a while I buy a box of Stouffer's
french bread pizza; I like the "supreme" ones. Each box has two which
are individually wrapped, so I can save the other one for another day.

Last time, the whole box was on sale for $1 only; limit one. If there
weren't a "limit one", I would have stocked at least 10 of them in my
cellar freezer (probably a year's worth). I don't recall the normal
price, but it is certainly over $3/box.

Tonight, we went to a street festival in town, with a live band. It was
cold, but I had an (very expensive) $11 cheeseburger. It was a very
good and filling burger; I'm glad that I didn't opt for fries on the side.

I roasted a chicken and it wasn't until after I started carving it that
I realised I had forgotten to stuff it with a bunch of tarragon. The
weather was a bit cooler than of late so I thought it would be an ideal
time to use some fresh tarragon from the garden before freeze-up.
Served with roasted baby taters and brussel sprouts. Devil's food
thumbprint cookies (Dorie Greenspan recipe) for dessert.

Nice-looking sandwich.

I had eggs scrambled with cooked onion, tomato, and ham. Toast and a
glass of milk.

I made some cold somen noodles for my wife's lunch. There's some zucchini and wasabi on it. Also a side of apples.

Looks similar to some of my work lunches.

Last week it was a noodle dish with udon base that looks fairly close
cousin. My trays have 3 compartments and the fruit choice was a simple
sliced peach with some brown sugar. The noodle dish was the other
small ccompartment and the big one was filled with rice and bok choy in
a brown curry gravey.

You're way not enough OCD for me. That sauce and cheese gotta be
spread out and layered more even than that! And served open face
- it's pizza bread. And if you don't like it, then you can just
get the hell out of your kitchen!

My wife said that she almost had an incident at work. I put too much wasabi on the noodles. Oops.

Sqwertz wants a swamp. One day he'll be looking for his keys and
they'll be in a horse radish swamp.
