Sammies

Monty Cristo Waffle ‘Wiches

Serves 1

This is a great recipe to make as a surprise for Mother’s Day or Father’s Day breakfast or brunch (with the help of another grown-up helper)!

Sausage, Pepper and Onion Sloppy Joes

Serves 4

Tango Joes

Serves 4

Turkey Meatball Pocket Subs with Side Salad

Serves 4

Monkey Spread French Toast

Serves 2 monkeys

This sweet breakfast tastes delicious all year round, but it’s easy enough for kids to make (with just a little help from a grown-up helper!) for a special breakfast-in-bed treat for Mom or Dad.

Spanish-Style Pressed Manchego Cheese Sammies and Spicy Salad

Serves 4

This menu is perfect for a Salad and Sammie Night!

Inside-Out Sausage Chops with Roasted Peppers

Serves 4

Rachael says, "In this recipe, all the flavors of sweet Italian sausage – fennel, garlic and cheese – get combined with sweet smothered onions and are piled on top of lean pork loin chops. My mom’s simple roasted peppers seemed the right side for this meal. If you like sausage, pepper and onion subs at the ballpark or at street fairs, this meal is for you!"

BBQ Chicken Sloppy Joes with Pickled Slaw Salad

Serves 4

Rachael says, “I made this when Wayne Brady came by the show. He was so funny I could not speak! I do not think one person heard the recipe, so here it is, written down. He loved the Joes. Maybe we should call ‘em Sloppy Waynes. Nah. He dresses too spiffy for that name to stick!”

Danish Lunch Box Smorbrod

Serves 2-4

In Denmark, little open-faced sandwiches (that means they have no tops on them) are lunchtime and snack time favorites of kids and grown-ups alike! Try a mix-n-match of these three sammies and your box will rock – Danish-style!

PB & H Extreme

Serves 1, or makes 2 snack-size servings

Heads up: some schools don’t allow PB & J anymore in the lunch rooms because some kids are super allergic to nuts. Check on it and have this lunch at home or school accordingly.

Chicken Taco Soup

Serves 1

For a thermos that rocks, try this soup!

Pizza Burger

Serves 4

I made this for my 6-year-old friend Matthew. He visited me on the show and is severly allergic to dairy and peanut butter. But he sure likes this burger, so I thought I would share it with you.

Turkey Florentine Meatball Heroes with Tomato and Red Onion Salad

Serves 4

Open-Face Turkey Burgers on Molasses BBQ-Soaked Texas Toast

Serves 4

I made this when first lady Laura Bush stopped by the show. This is a heart-healthy recipe, although I used white bread instead of wheat bread. But you can use the whole wheat white bread that is now available just as well! –RR

Joe’s Fish Tacos

Serves 4

Cecilia likes to make this healthy dish with her 14-month-old son, Joe, who already loves to eat all kinds of food!
