When I’m working some seriously crazy hours, generally the only things in my fridge are from Trader Joe’s. This is because there’s one about two steps from work and that’s about as far as my lazy ass can make it. So! One night after work, starvinginging to death, I threw some fridge contents together and created a great sandwich. Behold!

So this isn’t a recipe per say. Just a list of ingredients you may or may not want to stack together at some point in your life. What I used, all from Trader Joe’s:

- 1/2 demi baguette
- 1 to 2 tablespoons olive tapenade spread
- 1 to 2 slices prosciutto
- small handful of micro greens

Spread the tapenade on the bread, throw the other stuff on, eat!

Also, the TJ’s micro greens have become indispensable in my kitchen. They’re great on sammiches of all kinds, adding to salads, or just eating them dressed with a light vinaigrette.

Double Also! In the making of this sammich, I discovered (or remembered from something I read on the internets) a Very Useful Thing. How to eat a baguette that’s up to 4 days old without breaking your teeth. No more than 4 days though. Or teeth will break. You will lose any kind of baguette crusty-ness with this method, but that doesn’t really bother me. If it bothers you, buy fresh baguette!

So, lightly dampen a paper towel. Wring it out if you need to so it’s not dripping wet. Wrap it snugly around the bit o’ baguette you want to eat. Microwave for 15 seconds. You can go up to 20 seconds, but no more. Cut off any parts that are still hard, cause man, they’re gone.

Voila! Warm, soft, edible baguette.
