Pass the Pickles and Cheese, Please!

I must - absolutely must - tell you about my favorite sandwich of all time. And it is a winner, a truly magnificent concoction of processed, white bread deliciousness!

(insert sarcasm here!)

Now, after you read this, you may never ever come back to read one of my recipes again...or you may never come back at all...I mean, I ruffled up a window screen yesterday and called it a wreath, and now, I have this delightful story about a sandwich that will never be on Top Chef, but may end up as a signature dish on the Worse Cooks in America.

Ever since I can remember, I have loved pickle and cheese sandwiches. I remember eating them in elementary school, middle school, and even in high school. I also remember my friends thinking I was totally weird...and they were kind of right.

In deciding to share this memory and super secret recipe, I had to ask my mom {who conveniently happens to be here visiting} where the pickle and cheese "recipe" came from. Apparently this gourmet creation is passed down through the generations. It was my granny's favorite sandwich and she used to make them for me at her house. My granny died when I was 7 and I had a really strong bond with her, so I am guessing that is why I still love the idea of the pickle and cheese sandwich. Pickle and cheese sandwiches take me back to my childhood...a simpler time - hanging at my granny's house, eating pickles and cheese, playing on the slip, and slide and finishing the day off with plums from her tree. Pure heaven for a kid...this kid anyway!

Since I know you are dying to make one for your self, here's the scoop!

You need:

1 slice American cheese - preferably in one of those fancy plastic wrappers

2 slices of white bread {preferably Wonder}

1 Dill pickle, whole

1-2 Teaspoons+ of Mayonnaise

Make it:

Spread the mayo on both side of bread, unwrap the cheese and lay it on one side of the bread. Slice the pickle and lay them out on top of the cheese, in a single layer...it takes about 9 slices. Place bread on top. It is very important to spread mayo on both sides of the bread so that the sandwich sticks together.

{I really do not expect anyone to make this...but if you do....please tell! I won't tell anyone.}

Now, as yummy as this sounds, I really cannot tell you how long it has been since I have had a pickle and cheese sandwich, but my friends still remember these sandwiches. 

Anyone have a crazy sandwich concoction to share?...

Or just a favorite normal {boring} sandwich?

Oh yeah...come back later...it is giveaway day!
