Feta Sandwiches

Serves 2

  • 1/2 pound good feta, sliced into 1/4" slices
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • 1/2 hot house cucumber, thinly sliced
  • Arugula
  • 2 buns or rolls. Preferably an olive bread.
  • 1/4 cup vinaigrette
    • 2 T good vinaigrette
    • 4 T good extra virgin olive oil
    • 1 tsp dijon mustard
    • very large pinch salt
      • Mix in all ingredients save olive oil
      • Slowly whisk in olive oil to emulsify

Put oven on broil, and 550 degrees. Toast buns, cut face up for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until brown.

Drizzle vinaigrette over both side of toasted buns. place arugula, then feta, then tomatoes and cucumbers onto bun. Drizzle additional vinaigrette, if desired over the top of vegetables.

Use remainder of vinaigrette and arugula for a side salad.

If you have the ability to do a panini, melting the feta with the vegetables is very good. In this case, add arugula after you melt the cheese.
