Of course, you could add meat and cheese of your choice to this sandwich. Mine was concocted to reduce my produce inventory. You won't use all of the mayo. Well, you could but golly that would be an odd sandwich.

SERVES 1 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Mayo spread (use about 2 tablespoons per sandwich)

Directions

  1. 1
    Mix the mayo, basil, lime juice and zest.
  2. 2

  4. 4
    Salt and pepper to taste.
  5. 5
    Close the roll and mush it down a bit so it will fit in your mouth.

A very good sandwich with simple ingredients that I usually have on hand. I used everything but the optional alfalfa sprouts. The flavored mayonnaise is delicious and a must-have for this sandwich! Thanks for sharing.

    Such a simple sandwich - but the mayo is outstanding and makes the sandwich!!! Loved this! Used lemon juice and some fresh crusty bread. This was a GREAT sandwich! Thanks SusieQusie!

    This sandwich was so delicious and so easy to make! I really enjoyed the mayo. I sauteed the vegetables and grilled the sandwich and used lemon pepper instead of zest. I also used a thick artisanal bread instead of a hoagie roll.

    A tasty enough sandwhich, though a little awkward to eat. Might be better with some turkey. However, if you don't use some of the remaining basil mayonnaise to dress a salad of cucumbers and tomatoes you are making a BIG mistake because it was absolutely delicious that way.
