A cubano sandwich is a delicious combination of roasted pork, swiss cheese, ham, mustard and mayo on soft crusty bread. It’s not always easy to find a latin style bread in the grocery store but a portuguese style roll or an egg bread style roll such as brioche or challah will work well here. You can even use a bakery style hamburger or panini roll with great results - the goal is soft bread with a soft crust that can be grilled to achieve a bit of crunch/crispness. My family often finds a great sandwich is just enough for dinner. A salad on the side if you need a little something more is a great addition here.
Go ahead and use chicken if you made it instead of pork this week.
For a vegetarian version omit the meats with sliced mushrooms, zucchini or cucumbers. Crispy fried tofu or tempeh is also a perfect addition in place of roast pork and ham here!
