This sandwich came together while cleaning out the fridge on the last day of vacation. I packed it to take on the plane — a simple combination of leftover roasted red peppers, Boursin cheese, and fresh basil on toasted baguette.

I’d rather eat something homemade — even if it’s just okay — than processed or fast food. I figured this sandwich would be good enough, but after taking a bite I realized it was great! My daughter liked it so much that she started asking for the same sandwich in her school lunches, and we found yet another use for roasted peppers.

Below the recipe, you’ll find additional serving ideas to make the most of this versatile ingredient: roasted bell peppers.

Ingredients

Roasted peppers

Boursin cheese

Fresh basil

Baguette

Instructions

Toast the baguette, spread both sides with Boursin cheese, add a few slices of roasted peppers, fresh basil, and a sprinkle of sea salt and freshly ground pepper.

This sandwich is also delicious with plain or herbed goat cheese or just a drizzle of olive oil. Or skip the bread and just serve peppers and Boursin.

I often cook "au pif," as we say in France, which means cooking without an exact recipe and by "feel" using your intuition.  You’ll find guidelines in many recipes versus exact quantities.  Write to me here if you have any questions about the recipes.

  • A Real Game Changer

    "We have made a lot of progress over here under your care. We are now all eating from the same “pot” which I was surprised how much my kids loved. They were so excited when I put the food in the middle of the table. They asked for it the next day, Can we do that special fancy dinner thing where we have a feast? It really is such a better ritual—passing the food around and all sharing from the same platter, a real game changer."

  • Accidental Weight Loss!

    “I don't know if I told you, but I accidentally lost about 8 lbs after cutting out most semi-processed foods!"
