How to fill a baguette?

[Shy_pretty_Angela]

I hope you dont read anything controversial into the title! Especially you Percy!!
Ive recently got very into baguettes and want to know what everyones favourite filling suggestions might be!
Im very boring and do cheese lettuce and salad cream! ?
Ps. Im not vegetarian but dont eat red meat!

[Percy]

Smoke salmon and cream cheese or roast beef.

[Shy_pretty_Angela]

Ah I dont eat salmon either!

[genovese]

Hummus and good quality black olives.

Sausages onions ketchup

Sausages onions and mustard might be nice. BFG do you fancy giving me a baguette filling demonstration? I think people sometimes post recipes here but not sure if anyone has ever done a video!
Years ago I enrolled on a cookery course at my local college. Got very excited and bought an apron only to be told there were not enough students to run the course!
Bah!

Hot/warmed baguette with butter on its own. Or maybe some extra strong cheese spread.

I also like on the vine smallish tomato's roasted with olive oil, garlic and rosemary then placed on an open baguette with the juices.

Sausage and onion sounds good though

I don't really do baugettes for sandwichs much - they need to be softish for me not the horrible hard crusty and chewy kind.

Roasted vegetables (aubergine, courgette, onion, peppers) and hummus. Topped off with a pickled chilli.

Tuna mayo, red onion and some green whatever.

This thread is reinforcing my need to go back to making my own lunches. It's very easy to spend the best part of a tenner when you're feeling hungrier than a meal deal can offer.

Lol, there's an old fella at work who says similar every now and then, usually to the young'uns. I won't be saying how much i spend on booze anywhere within earshot of him!

ASDA cheese and onion sandwich filler. Tomatoes, spring onion and lettuce! Tastes great! Although I'm trying to be healthier at the moment. So I haven't had that combo recently. I have got some cottage cheese in the fridge, but it doesn't taste as great as the cheese and onion. At least it's healthier. I've also got a twix in the fridge, but again, I'm trying to be healthier. Although it would be nice to have a twix right now. Anyway.

^^ oh god have I turned into that person. Watching one foot in the grave I have noticed I seem to have a lot in common with Victor Meldrews views on the world.

Chicken, curry cream sauce with greens.

[Appear]

Egg mayo with a bit of spring onion and paprika (or mustard) mixed in.

Prawns in Marie Rose sauce (mayo and a bit of ketchup and paprika).

Salami of any variety.

All with a little lettuce.

[Chess&Junkfood]

Reading other members ingredients. Such as garlic and rosemary. Hummus and pickled chilli. Paprika and Marie Rose sauce! And here's me with some ASDA cheese and onion spread from a tub. It's times like this that I know I haven't lived! Although I've always been a meat and potato kind of guy. Or in my case, a tofu and potato kind of guy. I guess what I'm trying to say is....

^ I remember going to a dinner party once and was given lettuce with Marie Rose sauce because cold prawns give me the willies. That was my favourite ever food adaptation. It was served in a fancy glass too. A glass of lettuce and Marie Rose sauce hahaha

The sauce was hideous. I never want it in my mouth again.

(It was the kind with Worcester sauce in)

[Chess&Junkfood]

^
Served in a fancy glass you say! How swanky! It makes me want to update my chipped plastic bowl set.

As for the Marie Rose sauce. When I first read Appear's post, I thought he said:

"Prawns in Mary Rose sauce"

Which confused me at first. Isn't the Mary Rose a ship? And does that mean Appear is having a sauce made from a ship? That doesn't make sense? Although Appear is very refined. And maybe he has a very refined palate. At which point, I then said to myself, good for Appear for wanting to have a sauce made from a ship! Whatever floats his boat is what I say!

And after your taste verdict on the Marie Rose, I will give that sauce a wide berth.

Anyway, now seems like a good time to stop, as I'm starting to scrape the barrel with this post.

^ the appear recipe is fairly easy on the tongue. It's the one with worscetershire sauce that I find not so nice.

I was in a cafe in Spain once, on the menu they had an octopus and onion baguette and I knew I had to try it. Til this day, it's still the greatest sandwich/baguette I've ever had.
