With school on the near horizon for many of my readers' children,
and a few weeks of summer left for others, here is a collection of
sandwiches ranging from simple to elegant for the lunch box or
picnic basket:

Monday's "Extra"
Avocado Sandwiches

Tuesday's "Extra"
Mushroom Supreme Sandwiches

Wednesday's "Extra"
Asparagus Souffle Sandwiches

Thursday's "Extra"
The Ultimate Shrimp Sandwich

Friday's "Extra"
Cornbread Turkey and Cranberry Sandwiches

This was my favorite sandwich as a kid, and my mother would put
it in my lunch box as a special treat. If I had been particularly a
good boy, she would add a slice of bacon.

Avocado Sandwiches

1 large ripe avocado, peeled and pitted
1/4 cup (60 ml) mayonnaise
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tsp (5 ml) lemon juice
Hot sauce to taste (optional)
4 slices white or whole wheat bread
2 slices bacon, fried crisp (optional)

In a small bowl mash the avocado along with the mayonnaise,
salt, pepper, lemon juice, and optional hot sauce. The mixture
should still have lumps of avocado. Spread on 2 slices of bread
and top with crisp bacon if desired. Top with the remaining bread.
Makes 2 sandwiches.
