20 Gourmet Sandwiches Perfect For Lunch - MommyThrives (2024)

My family absolutely loves sandwiches. There are times that we just get loads of different deli meats and make up some gourmet sandwiches for dinner. Sandwiches are a filling comfort food that are easy to make.

In the winter for an easy meal I make a nice soup in the instant pot and put together a couple of great sandwiches and it’s just the perfect meal to warm up to without spending loads of time in the kitchen.

Have you ever tried a gourmet sandwich bar? They are perfect for family events during the summer. You can easily set up a large tray or an entire buffet across your dining room table for people to create their own sandwiches. Use a griddle on the stove top or have a Panini maker heated up and ready to go.

What to add to your sandwich buffet:

  • Meat Slices and Meatballs
  • Provolone, Cheddar, Goat Cheese, Colby Jack, or Monterey Jack Cheeses
  • Sandwich Spreads, Garlic Aioli, Mayo, Vinegar, and Sauce
  • Pickles, Red Onion, and Olives
  • Red Peppers
  • Lettuce, Romaine, Arugula, basil, and Spinach
  • Sprouts or Watercress
  • Cream Cheese
  • Cucumbers
  • Avocado
  • Tomato
  • Fried Egg
  • Sub Rolls, French Bread, baguettes, buns, or Italian Bread

Then everyone can make their own sandwich exactly how they like it. Sandwiches are perfect for packed lunches, family gatherings, and dinners. They are versatile in their assembly and extremely customizable for the picky eaters in your family.
