Remember a few weeks ago when I told you that I, the foodie with condiment issues have folks in my life who LOVE condiments? Well sandwiches are where 80% of the condiment usage occurs in my house. Mayo on this, Mustard on this, BBQ sauce on that. It’s kind blowing to me really! I can cook with a condiment all day, but, I typically eat my sammies on the dry side.
Did you know that November is home to National Sandwich Day? Yep. Sammies, Sammies, Sandwiches. They get all the love this month. As they should. A good sammie can change up your day. Enter the pulled Chicken Ranch Sammie.
