Pesto parm ham and smoked turkey find companions in cucumber, roma tomatos, and a bed of iceberg (piled on not for taste but texture, a theme of my sandwich work). Wisconsin cheddar joins organic mayo and Hawkwind Heat mustard on a sturdy wheat bread, toasted of course.
While at first glance deceptively pedestrian, choice ingredients make this stand out on the Bascom Hall quad where I enjoy it most days. Pesto parm and cheddar were meant for one another and I've never met a meal not improved by the brash H H mustard, which boasts chunks of hot peppers in its sweet spread.

This is a genius of a sandwich; reminds me of the ones I used to make for my son when he was in high school. We don't have any of this H H mustard down in Chicago, so I'll have to go find some to order online. Pesto parm? Is that pesto with parm IN it or side by side?
