Tonight’s problem: Have bits in the kitchen; don’t want to cook anything complicated; don’t want to go to store.

Solution: Put bits on sandwich.  Details below, along with suggested substitutions.

Bits:

1 Uglyripe Tomato
1/2 White Onion
1 bucket mixed weird salad greens
1/2 tub baby bellas
1 link Tofurkey brand Italian Sausage substitute.  Consider any German, Italian, or Polish sausage (cooked), or the veggie-sausage of your choice.  Breakfast sausages not recommended.
1 jar Irish Stout Mustard (consider any good honey mustard, brown mustard, or condiment-of-choice)

Garlic salt
Black pepper
Asiago cheese (consider parmesan, cheddar, or fresh mozzarella)
Slightly sweet kaiser-ish rolls
Made-from-food organic ketchup
Dill pickles

Protocol:

Toast roll over low heat on skillet until insides are lightly burnt and outside is soft and mushy.  While that’s going:

Slice sausage into bits (or crumbles).  Slice up appropriate amount of shrooms and onion for number of sandwiches (in my case: 1).  Mix in bowl and douse in garlic salt.  I then sauteed all of that and a heap of shredded asiago in a cast iron skillet over medium heat with canola oil.  I would not put the cheese in next time.  If you are using cheddar put the cheese on top of the rest at the very end when everything is cooked, then cover until the cheese melts.  With asiago, parma, or romano I would go ahead and shred the cheese right onto the sammich after hot veggies are added.  With mozzarella I would put a nice briney slice of fresh, raw mozz right on the sandwich without any use of heat on the cheese.

Put stuff on sammich.  Eat.  Drink pumpkin ale.  Be merry.
