A bit of history: Sandwiches were invented in the 18th century when a British aristocrat, Lord Sandwich, requested a meal that could be eaten quickly. Since then, this simple idea has evolved and diversified into numerous variants, becoming part of culinary culture worldwide. Our fluffy sandwich is a modern reinterpretation, with tasty and healthy ingredients.
Necessary ingredients:
- 1 fluffy bun (preferably fresh)
- Cream cheese with sour cream, a fine product from Delaco
- Tomatoes (slightly ripe for a sweeter taste)
- Cucumbers (fresh and crunchy)
- Bell peppers (optional, for a touch of color and flavor)
Ingredient details:
The bun is the base of this sandwich, so make sure to choose a quality, soft, and fluffy one. The cream cheese with sour cream from Delaco adds a fine texture and creamy taste, perfect for complementing the fresh vegetables. Tomatoes and cucumbers not only add vitamins but also a crunchy and fresh contrast, while the bell pepper, although optional, can bring a hint of sweetness.
Preparation steps:
1. Start by cutting the bun in half using a sharp knife. Make sure the cut is even, so you get two equal halves.
2. Spread each half of the bun with the cream cheese with sour cream from Delaco. Don't be stingy; a generous amount will make the sandwich tastier.
3. Slice the tomatoes and cucumbers thinly. If using bell peppers, slice them into thin strips as well.
4. Place the slices of tomato and cucumber on one of the halves of the bun, alternating colors for an appealing look.
5. If you've chosen to use bell peppers, add them on top of the already placed vegetables for an extra burst of flavor.
6. Place the other half of the bun on top, gently pressing to seal the sandwich.
7. Cut the sandwich in half if desired, and serve immediately with a glass of natural juice or water.
Serving suggestions:
This fluffy sandwich is perfect for breakfast but can also be an excellent snack throughout the day. You can accompany it with a green salad or vegetable chips for a complete and healthy lunch. Additionally, a fresh fruit smoothie would perfectly complement the meal.
Possible variations:

- You can use other types of cheese, such as feta or mozzarella, to provide a different taste experience.
- For a spicy note, add a few thin slices of chili or hot sauce.

Frequently asked questions:
1. Can I use whole grain bun?
Of course! A whole grain bun will add fiber and additional nutrients, making it an excellent choice for a healthy lifestyle.
2. How can I store the sandwich for later?
If you want to prepare it in advance, keep the ingredients separate and assemble the sandwich shortly before consuming to avoid sogginess of the bun.
3. Is this sandwich suitable for food intolerances?
If you have intolerances, you can replace the cream cheese with a vegan alternative or hummus, and the bun can be chosen from gluten-free ingredients.
