Sandwich Making 101
Step 1
Keep all ingredients refrigerated throughout the sandwich-making process.
Wearing gloves and hair ties is REQUIRED. Lay out white bread (easiest to digest)—no ends/heels.
Step 2
Place one piece of cheese on EACH slice of bread. Every sandwich should have at least two pieces of cheese. No condiments should be used.
Step 3
Use 2.5 ounces of high-quality turkey or ham on each sandwich - no meat alternative allowed.
Step 4
Step 5
Place each sandwich in an individual zip lock sandwich bag. Press out excess air. Seal tightly.
Neatly place the zip-locked sandwiches into the loaf bag, press out excess air, and secure well with a twist tie—no knots/bands. Place complete loaf bags into a refrigerator.
Step 6
Deliver your sandwiches in a cooler with ice packs to a convenient host site on Wednesdays. Follow the host’s directions for sign-in, labeling, and refrigeration.
Step 7
Wednesday is Sandwich Day!
