With so many reasons to eat summer sandwiches and the abundance of recipes, we decided it would be the ideal theme for this week's SWAT (Sharing With A Theme). We put the Culinary Content Network and our staff to the test to come up with easy sandwich recipes, and here are some of the highlights:

  • Christine Ma from Cherry on My Sundae shared with us her recipe for a s'mores sandwich melt, oozing with chocolate and marshmallows for your summer campfire party.
  • Lori Yates from Foxes Love Lemons made a spicy tandoori chicken wrap, which will add some bold flavor and flare to your next picnic.
  • The winner this week is Bernadette Martin from Rants from My Crazy Kitchen and her recipe for grilled caprese salad sandwich filled with fresh summer tomatoes and basil.

All of the recipes featured can be made at home for about $20 or less, excluding the cost of small amounts of basic ingredients such as butter, oil, flour, sugar, salt, pepper, and other dried herbs and spices.

Fig and Goat Cheese Sandwich Recipe

Fresh figs are a delicious warm weather treat but they're highly perishable so don't buy them more than a day or two in advance (and be sure to store them in your refrigerator). When you're ready to use your figs, try them sliced and served on bread with goat cheese, honey, black pepper, and greens for a simple and delicious summer sandwich.
