Easy Brie Cheese Salami Sandwiches

By diana | Published January 24, 2011

This is a very easy sandwich recipe I like to make when I’m in a hurry, yet feeling the need for some warm meal. The ingredients listed below are my favorites, but you can replace them with others, if you wish. Cooking is a matter of taste, isn’t it?

Ingredients:

  • 1 ciabatta bread, sectioned in halves
  • 8 slices salami
  • 4 slices brie cheese
  • 4-6 kalamata olives, cored, chopped
  • 2 cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 2 teaspoons butter (or 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil)
  • freshly ground black pepper

Directions:
Preheat a stovetop grill. Grill the ciabatta bread halves for about 2-3 minutes on the inner side. Flip them. Top them with butter, then grill them until you see the butter starting to soften. Add the cheese, then the salami slices, the olives and the tomatoes. Cover and continue grilling the sandwiches on low temperature until the cheese melts. Remove from heat, sprinkle with freshly ground pepper and serve hot.

Egg sandwich

This is a simple sandwich recipe which uses only boiled eggs and a few vegetables. It can be a good idea for using the Easter dinner leftovers for the next day’s breakfast.

Ingredients:

  • 2 eggs, boiled medium to hard
  • 4-6 cucumber slices
  • 2 lettuce leaves
  • tuna spread
  • butter (if you prefer, you can replace it with processed cheese)
  • 2 slices of bread

Directions:
Heat water in a pot until you bring it to boil, then add the eggs. Boil them for 4 minutes, then cool them in cold water. Slice them carefully with a thin bladed knife (serrated knives are not good because they tend to rip the yolk up). If you have a cheese slicer use that instead of the knife. It works beautifully.

Butter the bread slices. Put a lettuce leaf on each slice, then arrange the egg slices on top of it. Add the cucumber slices and tuna spread.
