Perfect Party Sandwiches

You’ve got a big event coming up or, maybe you’ve been invited to a holiday party and asked to bring something. What on earth should you make?

Let me suggest these super easy and incredibly delicious party sandwiches! They’re a huge crowd pleaser and the best part? You can customize the recipe in several different ways.

Kids LOVE these so consider making a batch to freeze (don’t add the onions till you bake them) and bake ’em up when you need them.

See Kate’s Tips below for combo ideas.

Use any combo of meat and cheese or, go vegetarian and use avocado, veggies and cheese. So easy, so delish!

These Easy Chicken Sliders are great for a party, too!

Kate’s Tips

  • Try ham and cheddar, turkey and swiss, or roast beef and provolone. Ham and pineapple, or turkey/bacon/avocado. Feel free to use any combo you like!
  • I buy the French Hamburger Rolls from Publix. They work really well and have a little more heft to them than most dinner rolls.
  • Try biscuits or ciabatta bread for a slightly different twist.
  • If you’re prepping these in advance, don’t add the crispy onions. I lay the sandwiches out on sheet pans, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until I’m ready to heat them. Add the onions before you put them in the oven so they don’t get soggy.
  • During the holidays, turkey and cranberry sauce with swiss cheese and the crispy onions would be amazing!
  • Add crisp bacon to take these over the top.
  • If you want to keep it vegetarian, try avocado, veggies, arugula, and cheese.
  • Make them spicy and use pepper-jack cheese.
  • When you serve these at your holiday party, I guarantee they’ll be the hit of the night!
  • I use these Crispy Onions.
  • This is the mayonnaise I use…and the dijon mustard.
  • These organic bread and butter pickles are great.
  • Try adding a teaspoon or so of worcestershire sauce to the mayo/mustard mixture.
  • Feel free to add sliced banana peppers or a thin slice of a ripe tomato or pickled jalapenos. Try whatever you like!
  • Roast pork and melty cheese would be great and meatballs and some sauce and mozzarella would be over the top amazing 🙂
  • If your grocery store has gluten free buns, try those!

It hit me out of the blue like a bad toothache. Crippling anxiety descended 3 years ago and refused to let up. I didn't know what to do. I could barely eat, let alone write, speak, or create. Never in my life had I experienced anything like it and it terrified me.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I begged the Lord to take it away but He simply said, "rest." He led me to Psalm 23 and the words nearly jumped off the page: "He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul" (Psalm 23:2, ESV)⁠.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And that's when I saw it. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
He MAKES ME LIE DOWN! I knew in that moment it wasn't my choice. I wasn't about to argue, but I wanted to know why. Why anxiety? Why ME? That's so not who I am! But, it drove me on a desperate search for answers as to why on earth God sometimes MAKES us lie down? ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Psalm 23 seems so peaceful—still waters and all that—and much of it is, but I'm learning God is in complete control of our circumstances and He knows exactly what we need every moment. Sometimes He makes us lie down to get our focus, to protect us, to help us, to realize we're blessed right where we are. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Is He making you lie down today? If so...
💕
(to read the rest head to @joyfullifemagazine and join me there 💖🙏) It would be my honor to pray for you 😊
