Sexy Salami Sandwich

When I was in eighth grade, I conducted an science experiment testing the ability of taste buds to differentiate between various flavors. Even at a young age, I was fascinated with the function and capacity of taste buds. I made a sandwich today that reminded me of these tiny taste receptors, in how they felt honored to eat the sandwich thrown together by the leftovers contained in my fridge.

Sexy Salami Sandwich
- spinach/sliced strawberries/sliced mushrooms/garlic and herb goat cheese crumbles salad**
- 2 slices of bread
- Salami circles (about 4-5)
- grated swiss cheese

**The spinach/strawberries/mushrooms and goat cheese were combined and left over from dinner last night.

1. Spread Chipotle mayo on both slices of bread.
2. Place 4-5 circles of salami on one slice.
3. Sprinkle grated swiss cheese on top of the salami circles.
4. Toast both slices of bread (open-face) in a toaster oven.
5. Layer the greens (salad) on top of the salami and cheese and place the other slice of bread on top.

After finishing this salad, I didn't want to eat anything else to compromise the flavors I was tasting in my mouth.

Dear taste buds,
You're welcome.
