This recipe was inspired by a sandwhich I had at a Barnes and Nobles cafe that serves both Starbucks, and Cheesecake Factory.

So I liked it so much I came home and came up with my own recipe. I omitted things like extra salt and not so much Chipolte since my family has little kids who don’t like spicy. These are a huge hit at our house and other than assembly time they really are quick, filling, and delicious.
