Greatest Hits of 'A Sandwich A Day': Top 5 'Not Quite' Sandwiches

Love love love Doubles. Had two tonight before a bike ride. Got it at Trinidad Ali's 589 Flatbush Avenue@ Midwood St. They also have awesome Roti's. I think even better that Trinidad & Tobago's top Roti shop.

Do you shop Farmers' Markets or belong to a CSA?

Living in NYC area, I have access to great farmer's markets. Grand Army Plaza on Saturday of a trip in the city for the Union Square market.
Of course great regional fruit and vegetable but hard to resist the fresh bread and cookies, always think they are healthier.

The CSA doesn't interest me.

Alton Brown's Sardine-Avocado Sandwich Diet

My husband and had sardine and avocado sandwiches for lunch today on English Muffins. We didn't follow the recipe at all. Added black pepper and diced scotch bonnet pepper with a couple dashes of salt. So yummy and we felt great because, 1 it was super easy and 2, we almost always have those are ingredients on hand.

I guess it's time to make cookies. Thanks I'm really craving a good homemade cookie now. I love the Nieman Marcus cookie recipe.

Dinner Tonight: Beet, Avocado, and Goat Cheese Salad

My husband and I had the salad last night for dinner. The avaocado wasn't ripe yet so we left it out and neither of us are fans of arugula so we substituted mixed greens. It was wonderful. We'll definately have it again.
(anderkr1) I would absolutely suggest using fresh beets, we baked then a little longer 45 minutes instead of the suggested 15 minutes.
Getting the stain off my hands was pretty easy too. Cooks Illustrated suggested spinkling hands and rubbing hands with salt, the crystals helped the absorption of the red dye.
