December 2008 (check local listings)

Sandwiches are the perfect everyday food. For her unique pressed salami sandwich, Sarah hollows out a big round of bread and stuffs it with layers of roasted red peppers, salami, provolone cheese and arugula. It's served with a colorful radicchio and orange salad. Today's "Have You Tried?" ingredient is dried figs. Allie transforms this sweet and chewy dried fruit into a luscious fig spread, perfect for a sandwich with prosciutto. Margot prepares a spinach and artichoke wrap that's ideal for the lunchbox. For a quick and satisfying dinner, Lucinda makes barbecue pork sandwiches with cabbage slaw. Juicy slices of tender roast pork are smothered in a quick barbecue sauce and topped with the cooling crunchy slaw. Finally, Emma serves up an all-American favorite: grilled cheese. Golden and buttery, with melted cheddar cheese oozing from the sides, it's a favorite comfort food.
