Ribbon Sandwiches

Jun 03 2015 Liz Call

When I was thinking about what I wanted to bring to our collaboration 4th of July party, I asked my mom what she thought I should make.  I wanted her to think vintage/retro foods that she hadn’t seen for a long time.  That’s when she came up with ribbon sandwiches.  I probably have eaten a ribbon sandwich before, but I didn’t remember what they had in them.  I wanted to create a couple variations so there would be something for everyone.ribbon sandwiches like our mothers made

My version of a ribbon sandwich is 3 slices of bread (they can be all the same type of bread or a variety for color) with 2 layers of filling.

I wanted to make one that kids would like and knew I needed to use peanut butter.  I decided nutella, bananas ,honey and peanut butter would make a great combination.

I started with spreading nutella on a slice of bread and then added some sliced banana on top.  I spread the middle piece of bread with peanut butter and honey.

 I stacked up the slices of bread on top of each other.

 Then I cut off the crust making a square (or close to a square).

Then I cut them in half creating 2 triangles.  I loved being able to see the layers of goodness in these sandwiches.

My next ribbon sandwich I knew I wanted to create a ham salad layer.  Once I had my ham salad spread on the first slice of bread, I decided I wanted to do a cream cheese and cucumber layer to go along with it.

This combination turned out really yummy.  The cucumbers gave it a nice crunch.

Yield: 4 sandwiches

I then decided to make a classic egg salad.  I love a good egg salad and thought 2 layers of egg salad would be so yummy!

My egg salad recipe is super easy:

1 dozen hard boiled eggs – peeled

1 cup miracle whip

salt & pepper to taste

Make sure your eggs get chopped up small and mix everything together and you’re done.

They all turned out so beautiful and looked just like I thought a ribbon sandwich should look like.  Plus they were something different that you don’t normally see at a potluck or party.

Have you ever made ribbon sandwiches?  What are some of your favorite combinations?

Happy Partying!

Liz
