This Chicken Caprese Sandwich has chicken breasts, with tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, all tucked into a warm ciabatta roll slathered with pesto. It’s fresh and full of flavor and checks every box. It all comes together in one bite, exactly the way a caprese sandwich should.

This recipe is one we’ve been making and tweaking for years, ever since friends first introduced it to us. I love a good caprese, but let’s be honest, not all caprese sandwiches are created equal. Some are good and simple, and others are the kind that make you forget all conversation at the table. This chicken caprese sandwich is firmly in that second category.

Many of you have loved our balsamic glazed caprese sandwich, but this version actually came first. It’s easy to adapt, whether you make it with chicken, vegetarian, or gluten-free, and it’s been a go-to ever since. However you make it, this is one sandwich worth keeping in your rotation.

Ingredients For Chicken Caprese Sandwiches

This Caprese Chicken Sandwich is the perfect solution for turning leftover chicken breasts into something fresh, flavorful, and exciting. Transform your leftovers into a meal that is anything but ordinary.

• Skinless Chicken Breasts: juicy, grilled base for the sandwich
• Olive Oil: used to cook the chicken and add richness
• Garlic: lightly infuses the oil for extra flavor
• Pesto: Made from fresh basil leaves, herbs, kosher salt, black pepper, pine nuts, and parmesan. Adds classic basil flavor and moisture
• Fresh Mozzarella: Slices of Fresh Mozzarella Cheese melt over the chicken for a creamy caprese layer. It really has to be fresh mozz…it’s just soooooo much better for this type of sandwich!
• Roma Tomatoes: fresh tomato slices that balance the richness
• Balsamic Vinegar Glaze: A sweet, tangy drizzle of balsamic glaze is the perfect finish to the sandwich
• Ciabatta Rolls or Kaiser Rolls: sturdy, toasted rolls perfect for caprese sandwiches

This easy ham and cheese sandwich is everything a classic sandwich should be! It’s simple, comforting, and incredibly satisfying with one small upgrade that makes a big difference. Flaky croissants replace regular bread, and a garlic herb spread adds rich, savory flavor in every bite.

Filled with smoked ham and smoked Gouda, this sandwich is perfect for a quick lunch, easy dinner, or for a bunch of teenagers piled in your kitchen!

This isn’t your average ham and cheese sandwich. Croissants and garlic spread make it bakery-level good with minimal effort. It’s my favorite way to use up leftover veggie dip. We pretty much lived on these sandwiches the several days after Christmas this year, and we loved every second of it!

Ingredients You’ll Need….

Only 4 ingredients needed! Grab some croissants from Costco and then hit the deli for some ham and gouda!

• Croissants: Buttery and flaky, they instantly elevate this sandwich.
• Garlic Herb Spread: Adds bold, savory flavor without extra effort.
• Smoked Ham: Brings depth and saltiness that pairs well with cheese.
• Smoked Gouda: Melts beautifully and adds subtle smokiness.

How to Make a Ham and Cheese Croissant

You probably don’t need instructions for this sandwich, but I’m going to give them to you anyway! I’m also going to assume you have already made the garlic herb veggie dip which is the key to elevating this sandwich.

1. Slice and Spread: Cut the croissants in half and spread the garlic dip all over both sides of the bread.
2. Add: Layer in the ham and cheese slices and add the top of the bread.

This Egg Salad Sandwich Recipe is high in protein, easy to make, and loved by both kids and adults! It’s the perfect way to use leftover hard-boiled eggs from Easter. Egg salad is a classic staple for every household and is great to enjoy at home or on the go.

I’ll be honest, I’d never even tried egg salad because I didn’t see the point. And really, how often are you even offered egg salad? For me, basically never! Then one day we went to a new sandwich shop and my husband ordered an egg salad sandwich. I was genuinely confused. We’d been married over five years and I’d never once seen him eat it. He said he’d always liked egg salad, he just never thought to make it. Interesting.

Then I got pregnant, got sick, lived on IV therapy for a while, and completely forgot egg salad even existed. Until this past week. And wow. It’s delicious. I love deviled eggs so why didn’t I think about trying egg salad? I’ve clearly been missing out. So consider this your sign. Try it for lunch, dinner, a snack, as a sandwich, on crackers, or in a wrap. However you eat it, just try it.

Ingredients for Egg Salad Sandwiches

There are a million egg salad sandwich recipes out there, but none of them are going to be as glorious as this one. These are the ingredients you will need:

• Mayonnaise: It has to be Hellman’s. Trust me on this one.
• Dijon or Yellow Mustard: I usually reach for Dijon, but yellow works just fine if that’s what you have.
• Stoneground Mustard: Adds an extra layer of flavor and a little texture that makes the salad more interesting.
• White Vinegar or Lemon Juice: The acid is key to getting the flavor just right and balancing the richness.
• Fresh Chives: Bring a subtle onion and garlic flavor without overpowering the eggs.
• Fresh Parsley: Adds a bright, fresh note that keeps the salad from feeling heavy.
• Fresh Dill Weed: You can’t miss that classic dill flavor. It’s essential for a proper egg salad.
• Kosher Salt: Season thoughtfully and taste often until it’s just right.
• Black Pepper: Adds flavor with the tiniest hint of heat.
• Hard-Boiled Eggs: Use your preferred method. We have posts for both stovetop and Instant Pot.
• 7-Grain Bread: High quality is key so it can stand up to the creamy egg salad.
• Green Leaf Lettuce: I love the crunch and the fresh, bright contrast it adds.

The measurements for each ingredient are listed in the recipe card at the end of the post. You can also save or print the recipe from there.
