It’s one of the best reasons to make meatloaf... using the leftovers to turn into one of my favorite sandwiches ever! I like it sliced and served cold on the hearty Flaxseed Oat bread that holds up so well without having to be toasted (as do all Éban's breads). It allows for the meatloaf to take center stage, because MEATLOAF!
Makes 1 sandwich
Ingredients
- 2 slices of Flaxseed Oat bread
- 1 teaspoon Duke’s mayonnaise (optional)
- 1-2 teaspoon(s) mustard (optional)
- 1-2 teaspoon(s) ketchup (optional)
- 1 piece green leaf lettuce, if desired
- 1-2 slices tomato, if desired
- 1-2 pieces meatloaf, preferably last night’s leftovers, cold and sliced, about ½-3/4 inch thick (see our recipe for gluten-free meatloaf)
Method
- Lay the bread on a food-safe surface and spread the condiments of your choosing onto one piece of bread.
- Top the condiments with lettuce and tomato, if using.
- Lay the slices of meatloaf on top and carefully join the ingredients with the other slice of bread to create a sandwich.
- Eat immediately or wrap in sandwich paper and chill to enjoy when you’re good and hungry!
Notes
- If you’re not at the job site and prefer a hot lunch, you can always toast your bread and heat the meatloaf up in the microwave.
- Many condiments would work well with this meaty sandwich. Try horseradish (prepared or creamy), barbecue sauce, Sriracha or Korean Go-Chu-Jang sauce, chimichurri, or your favorite steak sauce.
- Peppery arugula leaves (instead of leaf lettuce) add a great bite to this rich and meaty sandwich
- Cheese is always a welcome add-on! Sharp cheddar, Pepperjack, Swiss, Dill Havarti, or Bleu cheese are all good choices.
