Well, I wasn’t, but Christy was, at the end of her post about roasted garlic-buttermilk-goat cheese spread. And that reminded me of a sandwich I encountered on the Fourth of July (incidentally, it complemented a 4th of July spread that included hamburgers, satay, and properly prepared sticky rice, very nice.) The sandwich was:
- grilled fresh pineapple (recommended: rings, 3/8 of an inch thick)
- fresh basil leaves
- crisp bacon
- cream cheese
- on French bread split lengthwise.
If that doesn’t turn you on, there’s no help for you.
