Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large whole kosher dill pickles
- 4 slices deli meat (turkey, ham, roast beef, or salami)
- 2 slices cheese (cheddar, Swiss, provolone)
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise or mustard
- Optional: lettuce, tomato, avocado, onion, or sprouts
Instructions
- Slice the pickles lengthwise, like buns. Leave a small “hinge” if you want a clamshell-style fold.
- Pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels to reduce moisture.
- Spread your sauce of choice on the inside of each pickle half.
- Layer meats and cheese, followed by veggies or add-ons.
- Press gently and wrap in parchment or foil. Slice in half if needed.
Notes
Use cold pickles for best crunch. Pat dry thoroughly and avoid overly wet ingredients. Wrap in parchment for lunch-friendly packing.
