Happy Sandwich hour's ;))
Party Sandwiches

Order white or whole wheat breads, sliced lengthwise (you generally must order these 1 day in advance). Trim off all crusts from slices. Roll lightly. Proceed as directed in any of the following recipes. One loaf serves 5 to 6 people.

Suggested Fillings:
* Egg; Salmon; Tomato & Cucumber Slices; Tuna.
* Egg; Sardine Spread; Pimento Cheese; Salmon.
* Cream Cheese & Lox; Egg Salad; Tomato & Cucumber Slices; Salmon & Pickle.

ROLLED SANDWICHES
Spread softened butter on one side of bread slice. Spread desired filling. Place a row of olives along narrow edge. (Gherkins, carrot sticks, green pepper strips, etc. may be used.) Roll up like a jelly roll. Wrap roll tightly in wax paper or sandwich wrap. Refrigerate 3 to 4 hours. Slice. Rolled sandwiches which have been sliced may be toasted under the broiler, if desired, depending on filling used.

RIBBON SANDWICHES
Spread softened butter on 2 slices of white bread and 2 slices of whole wheat bread. Spread 3 slices with desired fillings, and place one on top of the other in the form of a loaf, alternating dark and white slices. Top with remaining slice. Wrap tightly in wax paper or sandwich wrap. Refrigerate 3 to 4 hours. Slice in 1/2-inch slices, wedges or triangles.

CHECKERBOARD SANDWICHES
Prepare Ribbon Sandwiches (above), making sure that the filling is evenly spread. Cut into 1/2-inch slices. Spread slices with softened butter and filling. Stack into 4 decker sandwiches, with the dark strips above the light, and vice versa. Press together firmly. Wrap tightly in wax paper or sandwich wrap. Refrigerate 2 hours. Cut each stack into thin slices.

MOSAIC SANDWICHES
Cut fancy shapes from white and whole wheat bread slices. Cut tiny shapes with tiny cutters from the centers. Spread with softened butter and desired fillings. Make into sandwiches, using a dark and white slice for each sandwich. If desired, fill the opening in the white slice with the cut-out from the whole wheat slice, and vice versa.
