Sami's Bakery
If I could clone Sami's Bakery in Tampa, Florida, and put it in every city in America, I would! Sami's bread is the best clean bread that I've found. I was privileged to first try it when my brother-in-law graciously hand carried a number of fresh loaves for a family reunion last year. We got the millet bread, millet and flax bread, and cinnamon raisin millet bread.
This bread is great especially for those who cannot tolerate or have food sensitivities to gluten, dairy, refined sugar, and eggs. The ingredients are simple and straight forward. But not all their bread and baked goods are gluten free, so I suggest you call the bakery first if gluten free products are what you are looking for.
I like to place a large order online with Sami's in order to get my money's worth. I normally order two loaves of millet, two millet and flax, and two cinnamon. When I get the order, I'll put two loaves in the refrigerator and keep the rest in the freezer. For my last order I decided to get two bags of the millet and flax plain chips as well. I'm so happy that I got to try them because they were delicious and have become one of my favorite chips! These chips are wonderfully tasty and crunchy!
My parents kindly drove up from Virginia to visit us recently. While they were here, I noticed the loaves of bread in the fridge, and nostalgic thoughts of my dad's signature club sandwich came to mind. I could not help but smile. When I was a kid, his club sandwich was the afternoon snack that I always looked forward to. I never grew tired of it. So for old time's sake I asked my dad if he would make some club sandwiches with the Sami's millet and flax bread. They turned out just how I remembered them but this time so much more tasty and healthy.
Thanks dad and mom for always being so generous with your time and of course the delicious, unforgettable food that you share with us. Here is my dad's clean club sandwich recipe. Bon appétit!
Dad's Clean Club Sandwich
Ingredients
6 slices of Sami's millet and/or flax bread, toasted
Mayo by Primal Kitchen made with avocado oil (my favorite mayo and so healthy too) to taste
Organic chicken breast, cooked and shredded, as much as you like
Romaine lettuce
Slices of tomato
Nitrate free, organic bacon, baked crispy in the oven
Directions
Prepare the chicken breast. It can be baked in the oven with salt and pepper or pan fried on a cast iron skillet with a little bit of olive oil. Cook it on both sides and cover from time to time to make sure the chicken gets fully cooked. Toast 6 slices of Sami's millet bread. Spread a little mayo on the first slice, always spreading the mayo inside of the slice. Place your shredded chicken on top. Next place another toasted bread with a little mayo. Arrange 1 and half slices of bacon, tomato, and lettuce on top. Gently press the third slice of toasted bread down with a little mayo. And place 2 toothpicks into the sandwich and slice it diagonally. Repeat all steps to make the second club sandwich. Enjoy!
