roasted veggie sandwich with garlic mayo..


ok so i've been on a sandwich kick lately..i shared with you yesterday, what i believe to be the best sandwich ever.. that recipe can be found here cuban pork sandwich..then i shared with you a few weeks ago mashed potato, bacon, turkey and cranberry mayo sandwich.. thanksgiving on steroid type sandwich.. and who could forget this open faced asparagus, egg and bacon sandwich.. i know i never could.. and last but not least another recent post was this grilled roast beef 1000 sandwich..  which we loved.. so for lunch this weekend i made these roasted veggie sandwiches.. here was the response from the family.. pete: i don't usually care for veggie sandwiches but i really liked that.. me: i added pancetta to it.. pete: well whatever you did do it again because that was good.. shell: oh i don't think i will like that, can i have trix instead? me: no just try it kid.. shell: nom nom.. wow this is good.. is this my sandwich? can i eat it all? jake: no thanks i am not eating bread.. me: oh ok.. *i didn't push it with him.. seemed easier ha*  but all in all the results where favorable and i do love veggie sandwiches.. and i really enjoyed this one..



i roasted the veggies with olive oil, salt and pepper.. nothing could be easier..
 


i had to use these little grape tomatoes because well i forgot to get regular tomatoes but they worked out perfect..

roasted garlic mayonnaise: mash 6-8 roasted garlic cloves.. and chop.. add garlic mash/chop/paste to your mayo, add garlic olive oil, lemon juice and zest, whisk until well combined.. cover tightly and keep in fridge until ready to use.
 
sandwich assembly: take your toasted bread spread your garlic mayo on your bottom and top bun, layer pancetta or bacon, then your veggies in any ole way.. doesn't matter.. then sprinkle cheese {or lay a slice of your favorite cheese} and then your top bun and serve immediately.. very yummy..
