So, I went to Blimpie today for lunch. I had a coupon from the Sunday paper for a free regular sub with the purchase of one regular sub and a medium drink. Not a bad deal and I was in the mood for a sandwich; something quick, cool and tasty.


I'm originally from Philadelphia, so I'd much rather have a good hoagie from a mom and pop store, but we have to make do with what we have available, so I sometimes go to Subway. I hadn't been to Blimpie in a long, long time. (No particular reason, just hasn't been convenient.)

A believer that seasoned salt and pepper, or ketchup and honey mustard isn’t the only way to bring flavor to a meal. I also don’t like the typical lasagna or chicken and veggie dinner, and try to cook my family a unique meal at least once a week. I search for and prepare recipes that will cause a reaction around the dinner table – either good or bad. Besides, there’s always Pizza Hut around the corner lol. Here’s a sample recipe:

Banana-Nutella Stuffed Croissant

The Panini sandwich dates back to 1956, from Italy referring to a bread roll stuffed with meats and cheeses and toasted in a Panini press. Then, this sandwich started to become very popular in the 1970's in the United States restaurants, particularly in New York, then on to other US cities.
