Putting your meal between 2 pieces of bread, or on a bun just makes good sense to me.
I've been slow cooking a roast all day for tomorrows dinner, roast beef sandwiches, with fries, and gravy.
Bacon and eggs, chili, fish sticks, tomatoes, I love them all on a nice piece of toasted bread.
Today's was one of my favourites.
Ham, avocado, and chipotle peppers on a toasted bun. Serve it with cole slaw with mayo/mustard dressing.
Mmmm good.
Tell me about your favourite sandwiches
One of my favorite creations sandwich wise is peanut butter and hummus. Kind of a sweet and salty effect. Also, like a can of tuna, couple slices of cheese and some hot sauce and throw it in the microwave to melt the cheese.
I don't think the all time tried and true standard of pb&j can be beat!
I made one a few months ago after getting home from a party that was awesome (upon proofreading, I've found the subject of awesomeness is a bit vague in this sentence. The party and the sandwich were equally awesome.). It was a "I'm far to drunk to drive anywhere to get food, so I'll just make everything in the refrigerator" style sandwiches. Two eggo waffles as a bread substitute, a three egg omelet with cheese, a half package of bacon, a few slices of cheese, and butter and syrup.
Anything between two pancakes works well also..
Open faced turkey sandwich with sourdough bread and gravy. Covers all the major food groups (meat, bread & gravy) and has a delicious.
Hot pastrami on rye....with mustard.

On wheat bread, with whole milk on the side - FTW!

I have to try that one, sort of a non-meat protein kick in the nuts (with milk and bread of course).

Ballistic Elvis! Peanut butter and banana with bacon, a little whole-fruit jelly (I like raspberry), lots of crushed red pepper (the sweetness tempers it, so you can really pile it on), fried in bacon fat. I'm drooling just typing this...
big fan of the traditional gyro
My Panini Grille has become a staple of the kitchen, used more often than the toaster or microwave. Smoked Gouda, Green Apple Slices, Course Ground Mustard and Maple-cured Ham on fresh-sliced 9-grain bread. Mmmmm.
I'll never forget the muffaletta on challah bread I ate while the saints won the superbowl. Black forest ham, salami, provolone, swiss & the spiciest olive salad I've ever had on sesame seeded bread.
Not much of a sandwich person personally. More of a raw meat guy. I'll take a burger medium rare with the works. Or better yet, a Ribeye rare. You can put it on bread if you want.

When fixing sandwiches, I'm partial to a caprese-ish sandwich: mozarella, feshly sliced tomato, fresh basil, and priscuito on sourdough and grilled just to the point where the cheese is soft.

I had a sandwich in mind, but your idea of avocado just rocked my world. I love them (eat them with a spoon) but never considered the possibilities. Off to the store!

When I was in Germany, all I could get was meat and cheese over a single slice of hard bread. It's such a stupid way to eat. I kept thinking, "I guess they're not all engineers."

That sandwich in the first post looks freakin' delicious.
I was all out of bread this morning, but I did have croissants. So I melted some dark chocolate as a filling, and served it with black coffee.

Dark chocolate, with black coffee is a win, especially for breakfast.
I had a meatloaf sandwich for breakfast, on a triangle bun.
Mine, blue berry bagel with green peppers, onions, pepper jack cheese with honey ham.
I'm hungry, so I shall start a B-fast sandwich
so far it looks like
waffle, egg, bacon, cheese(shredded?+ slice of swiss), ham, potato patty
*edit, skipped the shredded cheese and ham, found left over shaved steak and onions to go in it. Waffles are blue berry. Condiments inclued syrup, butter, and katsup

This has to be my favorite breakfast. 65% to 75% dark chocolate is amazing. The richness of high quality chocolate is definitely worth the money.
Muffeletta is my latest fave!
