2. Falafel pita bread

2. Falafel pita bread

I actually pickled my own vegetables for this. Radish, carrot & cucumber. Cooked some falafel balls in the oven, placed it in lengthwise cut pita bread with a few pickled vegetbles and covered with tahini sauce. Put some lettuce in as well. I wasn't sure I was going to love this but it really grew on me. Different textures and the pickled vegetables gave it some sourness that cut through what could have been dry falafel. The sauce gave the sandwich a hot and cold contrast.    7/10

1. BLT

The humble BLT is a great way to start, I've made it many times before but you know you're on safe ground. When I make it, I just use the traditional 3 ingredients. The addition of mayonnaise and black pepper made a real difference. My one small complaint is that the filling kept falling out of the sandwich. Taste was great though.      8/10
