Parent Club #UltimateSandwich

I was challenged to come up with the #UltimateSandwich by @ and @Black_DeckerUS using my mad cooking skills (ok more frustrated than mad...my kids are picky!) and a Black & Decker Convection Oven. 

I, dear readers, have actually already eaten the ultimate sandwich.  And it was in France.  And you know those French people know a thing or two about ultimates of food. 

But first I had to make breakfast.

choice du jour: lightly toasted
And then lunch happened.

don't judge nutritional value of baked pizza

My Parent Club #UltimateSandwich took 20 minutes from oven to table with the using the 3 of the 4 functions of the Black & Decker Convection Oven (and I would like to personally thank the makers for the easy-view glass door which made waiting for dinner entertainment for my kids along with the ready signal bell because at minute18 the baby started crying.)

3 Main Ingredients to le best sandwich you've ever eaten:
  • demi baguette
  • steak haché
  • frites

    While I baked the demi baguettes (3 fit in the oven at the same time! woot woot) - I browned the ground beef adding garlic, salt & pepper and a whole lot of "Dinner's coming please go watch TV". 

    10 min. bread is baked. "Guys it's coming!" Put French fries on the bake pan in oven "Almost ready.." Cut the bread in half to toast for crunchy goodness.  Picked up crying baby with one hand and smeared mayonnaise on the toasted crunchy goodness bread with the other.  Now cooking one-handed (literally) popped the fries back in to warm while I assembled le sandwich.

    Done!  Sandwich steak haché frites
    le #UltimateSandwich inspired in France and eaten in my house last night
    French fries inside a baguette married with mayonnaise and fresh beef - it looks so wrong but tastes so right.  And the Black & Decker Convection Oven (available in Canada in August 2010) made it so easy.

    Disclosure: I created this post as part of the Black & Decker Ultimate Sandwich contest as part of a Mom Central Canada program. I received a Convection Countertop Oven Courtesy of Applica Canada Corporation, exclusive licensee of Black & Decker Home. The opinions on this blog are my own.
