Introduction

I had versions of this delightful sandwich several times during my recent trip to Lyon, France, and wanted to try to find a way to recreate it. This is a pretty close replica, though not exactly like the French boulangerie sandwiches, of course.

Number of Servings: 2

Ingredients

    1 large French baguette
    8 oz of boneless, skinless chicken breast, cooked and shredded
    2 slices of deli mozzarella cheese
    1 large tomato, sliced (about 6-8 slices)
    1/2 cup of spinach leaves
    4 tbsp of Italian dressing

Tips

One sandwich shop served it with mayonnaise, and it was delicious, too. So you can add a little mayo if you desire and still be French-approved. Serve with a piece for fruit for a great lunch or a light dinner.


Directions

Slice mostly through bread and pull back to create an opening. Stuff with meat, cheese and veggies and then drizzle with dressing. Enjoy!

Serving Size: Makes 2 large sandwiches.
