Sandwich has the power to transport you to France The wrong kind of bread will result in an awful mush
Posted by Kim Davaz • 1:53am
Pan Bagnat (pahn bah nyah, saying the 'n' in pan through your nose) is a make-ahead sandwich from the south of France that's a whole meal, perfect for picnics. The filling is tuna, tomatoes, olives, some greens and a garlicky olive oil. And anchovies. Don't let the anchovies scare you away. If you love anchovies, the more the better. If you don't, adding a small squeeze of anchovy paste to the dressing will add depth, but you probably won't realize exactly what it is.

Roast a whole chicken Vary the theme and flavor of the meal with creative spice combinations

One of the best ready-to-eat foods available at the grocery store is the whole roasted chicken. Bring one home and you have - depending on how many you'll be serving - a meal plus leftovers. Buying or roasting a whole chicken works best when you have people who will eat every part of a chicken. If you are serving only white-meat eaters, then a whole chicken is not the way to go. Even though a store-roasted chicken is so easy, roasting your own gives you the option of choosing your own flavorings. There are so many possibilities because chicken takes to…
