I decreased the amount of butter and used oil packed sun dried tomatoes and very much enjoyed this sandwich. -
We had this as a weekly meal when I was a kid. Unfortunately I am gluten free now so I may try this with gluten free bread and see how it works out. I have fond memories of this and searched it to see if I could modify only the bread! I dont remember this much butter but I will make your recipe as is to see how it tastes then modify it from there. I am glad I found this!

I am the mother of four boys--two sons and two stepsons. I am also the grandmother of one very sweet and precocious 3 yr old boy. I was once a healthcare administrator but quit a few years ago to stay home with my youngest. Since he has started to school, I am back to working part time.
<br> Next to my family, cooking is my passion. I have a wonderful husband who will try anything. He is my biggest fan and a discerning critic. A couple of years ago, we started a dinner club with friends who enjoy our passion for good food. We have shared many wonderful meals together.
<br> My favorite cookbook would have to be a family cookbook that my mom and cousin and I put together a couple of years ago. We shared all the favorites that had been passed down through the generations as well as new favorites.
<br> My biggest pet peeve is picky eaters who refuse to try anything new. It bothers me more with adults than with kids, but I love that my six year old will eat just about anything I put in front of him. There is something very gratifying about "grooming" the next generation of foodies.
