Sandwiches to Savor

In many ways, a sandwich is an ideal lunch solution—it’s simple and easy to make, beckons fresh ingredients, and fits perfectly in your hands. That’s why it’s been a menu staple for centuries, not only in the States but also abroad. These recipes from The Sandwich Shop offer a Mediterranean flair to this classic meal, making it even more mouthwatering.

This amazing concoction is chock-full of fresh veggies, marinated poultry, and cool, tangy tzatziki, all packed into a fluffy pita.

Expected the unexpected with this flatbread wrap, which includes pickles, turnips, chilies, and a zesty tahini sauce.
