Despite the debate over what qualifies as a sandwich (for example, is a hot dog a sandwich?), nobody can deny that sandwiches are a classic lunch staple. Quick and easy, portable and convenient, and so tasty too – what’s there to not like? Our awesome bloggers have tips and tricks galore to make your sandwiches better than ever, and you can find all these recipes and more on our Food Monster App!
