As I have been saying these past few weeks, the simple sandwich has been my life saver many a time; quick and easy to throw together without turning the stove on! What a bonus when you're in the heat of summer AND the Electricity supplier that's been so reliable in the past lets you down once too often!
That's what happened on Saturday, no electricity for 14 hours!!!
All due to a tree planted on the verge by an old neighbour years ago, who at the time did not look up and see the overhead power lines right above the little indigenous tree that one day would cause havoc!
A quick gardening lesson - Beautiful majestic Leopard Tree in the background will sadly be cut down now! We need to ensure that what we plant will not infringe on whatever surrounds it when it's fully grown!
Apologies for the photo quality but it's a rather cloudy afternoon here so it's not too clear.
Back to food, and sandwiches in this instance, we had takeout the night before the electricity outage and really did not feel like oily fast food again, so out came the salad ingredients and the faithful old sandwich was turned into a giant salad sandwich.
My cell phone was dead, the power packs were dead so I could not even take a pic of that sandwich and use it for the contest!
But today I will show you how to make a Cool Tuna Salad Pinwheel Sandwich.
I know many of you are in the midst of winter, but remember this one when it's summertime again, really delicious!
