We just completed 2 days of driving through Minnesota, North Dakota, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and western Alberta. Some 1300 miles in all.
Andy navigated us through a minor Bison snag today in Elk Island National Park.
On the eating end of things, we had a fantastic lunch in the car yesterday while we drove through Lloydminster, a town on the border of Saskatchewan and Alberta.
I knew we had sourdough rolls, a tomato, a salametti, and some homemade mozzarella I was saving for something special. Then it dawned on me…salad stuffed bread!!
Salametti, Tomato, Mozzarella Stuffed Rolls
1 tomato
1 salametti
8 oz fresh mozzarella
4 sourdough rolls
1/2 tsp salt
2 TBS olive oil
1 tsp dried oregano
3 tsp fresh diced fennel bulb, optional (we had it, so I threw it in)
1 tsp Spanish paprika
1. Chop the tomato, salametti and mozzarella. Add salt, olive oil, oregano, paprika and diced fennel.
2. Scoop out and chop the bread centers of the rolls, add to salad.
3. Toss everything well and spoon the salad into the middle of the each side of the roll.
We ate these with salt and pepper kettle chips and some fresh sliced cucumber.
Bison burgers…. yum!
