Tomato & Cucumber Sandwich with Bacon
This refreshing, tangy sandwich is easy to pull together when you're short on time. You can lightly toast the bread if you want a little crunch. Fresh dill adds a grassy flavor—if you don't have fresh, use 1/8 teaspoon dried dill in its place. Make it a vegetarian sandwich by skipping the bacon in favor of sliced cheese or an extra slice of tomato.

Mozzarella, Tomato & Prosciutto Sandwich
This prosciutto sandwich takes the classic ham-and-cheese sandwich to a new level with savory prosciutto and fresh, creamy mozzarella. The toasted bread adds a nice crispiness that complements the softness of the fillings. If you want to enhance the basil flavor even more, a smear of pesto on the toasted bread will do the trick.

Grilled Zucchini & Halloumi Pitas
This grilled halloumi pita is summer-ready with tender-crisp zucchini, fresh tomatoes and smoky halloumi cheese. You can prepare this sandwich inside using a grill pan, or outside using a gas grill. You can grill halloumi cheese just like you would any other protein (it doesn’t melt); letting it cook undisturbed makes it release from the grill pan easily.

Gut-Friendly Veggie Sandwich

We cook the sandwiches two at a time on medium-low heat to crisp up the bread and melt the cheese without having to worry about burning. If you have a sandwich press, you can skip Step 3 and use your press set on medium heat instead.
