What a wonderful sandwich! Simple to put together and has great flavor. I toasted up slices of some rosemary olive oil bread and that went really well with the filling. Thanks Sharon!

This is a new lunch favorite for me!! I added some fresh ground pepper and oregano on top of the oil and vinegar. Absolutely FABULOUS!!! Another plus is that I usually have all these ingredients on hand, so it's great for those days when I don't feel like "making lunch." THANKS!!!

This was a great sandwich to take to school, and very healthy! I used regular bread which I wouldn't recommend (the cream cheese wouldn't spread and the bread got soggy) but the sandwich was still great! Tasted just like one you would order at Subway!

I make a variation of this sandwich every summer when I've got garden-fresh tomatoes and cukes. I've never tried it with the sprouts and peppers, but plan to now. I was planning to type my recipe in, but now I don't hae to!
