BEST sandwich

that's right, i'm declaring the best sandwich in the world (okay, one of the best). it's an extension of the BLT, and it's called the BEST: bacon, egg, spinach, and tomato. and i own that name. nobody else can use it without paying royalties.

as i like to say, "a sandwich is only as good as its weakest tomato." i own that too. seriously :)

of course, you can substitute turkey bacon or tofu or anything else you prefer. spread mayo on one slice of toast made from a tasty bread, preferably one with a nice crust. add the four layers, being sure to salt and pepper the tomato.

enjoy this seriously good sandwich.

and of course use this to your heart's content*.

* your real heart may not like it so much, but that's what exercise is for... to work off your foodie habits.

ham and spinach frittata

made this this morning. tasty as heck, especially opposite a caprese salad.

6 eggs
1/2 to 2/3 cup grated cheese
1 to 1/12 cup of sliced baby spinach
1/4 cup ham, diced and browned
2-3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

preheat the over to 375f. heat the oil in an oven-safe pan. mix all the ingredients in a bowl and pour into the oiled pan. let sit 5-10 minutes until it seems the bottom has browned. then move the pan into the oven for 10 minutes or so until the top appears to be settled. then switch to broil and place the pan in the broiler for 2-3 minutes until brown on top.

cut and serve, just like anything else.
