Nothing tops a beautiful, well done sandwich. Good bread, varying textures and color. Something a little pickled and definitely an assertive spread or sauce.

The roasted garlic is hands off and can be easily done in advance while the oven is on for other reasons. The white bean spread will likely be more than you need here and can work as a dip for snacks. You can roast your own bell peppers, but I keep a jar on hand as a time saver and they work well here.

Want some protein? Add slices of chicken or deli meat should you choose.
