When I was little we would often spend the whole day at the community pool eating ice cream and chips until it was time for lunch. No one wanted to dry off get dressed and go home for lunch. Mayonnaise didn’t travel well and wasn’t safe in the summer sun. Peanut butter sandwiches were a solution but they also suffered from the heat.

My kids love the pool too so I looked for a better alternative to those less-than-perfect lunches of my childhood. The answer? Stuffed sandwiches. They’re portable and easy to eat even with wet fingers from the pool. Prepping the night before or in the morning is easy with a round loaf of bread filled with sandwich fillings. A baked mustard and butter topping adds extra flavor.
