Make Your Own Sandwich/Sub Night

My family loves it when we have food that they can assemble themselves. Waffle bars, salad bars, sundae bars, sandwich/sub bars…. It means they get exactly what they want and they look forward to these nights. These nights are great for cleaning out the refrigerator too. Use any last bits of meat, cheese, salads, and vegetables you have on hand to fill out your sandwich/sub bar.

Verdict: These are great for groups of teens and busy families. My kids helped get everything laid out from the fridge and we sat around the table after dinner playing a game.

We had potato chips, fruit, and greens to complete the meal.

  • Turkey
