DREAMING OF PALM TREES: Yum: Danish Open-Faced Sandwiches

Yum: Danish Open-Faced Sandwiches

(image via NPR.com)

I rarely eat sandwiches, but when I do, it totally reminds me of being a kid and taking bagged lunch to school (I loved guessing what my mom made me before lunchtime!) But as an adult, I think I'm ready to transition to a more sophisticated sandwich. ;) Enter: Danish open-faced sandwiches, like the ones pictured above, via NPR (recipes included).

Perfect for yourself, or to share with your friends, elementary style. &hearts

Jenni Austria Germany :: everyone in europe thinks it's so weird that americans aren't more clued into the "open-faced" idea... i think it's funny! my bf calls it "the normal way"....as in, "do you want this sandwich with 2 pieces of bread or the normal way?" (he's european)...either way, these look good.; January 5, 2011 at 7:20 PM
