Best ways to enjoy it
Embrace the fun of this sandwich by serving it open-faced on a colorful plate; this allows the delicious layers to be visible. Pair it with a light salad for added freshness or serve it alongside some crunchy carrot sticks for a bit of dimension. If you’re feeling adventurous, consider adding a splash of hot sauce or a side of pickles to amp up the flavor profile!
How to store
If you happen to have leftovers (though unlikely!), store the sandwich components separately. Wrap the olive loaf and chips in airtight containers to maintain their texture and freshness. The mayonnaise or butter spread can also be refrigerated in a covered container for up to a week. Just be sure to assemble the sandwich fresh to enjoy that satisfying crunch!
Extra advice
For even more texture, consider toasting the potato chips slightly if you can wait! Also, remember that blending flavors can make all the difference. Experiment with different types of olives in your loaf or add slices of cheese for an indulgent twist. If you’re short on time, prep all your ingredients ahead of time for a quick assembly during lunch breaks!
Creative twists
There are countless ways to give this sandwich your own spin! Try it with flavored mayonnaise or a spicy spread to cater to your taste preferences. For a healthier option, swap out regular potato chips for baked versions or even pita chips. Feeling adventurous? Add sliced jalapeños or roasted red peppers to boost the flavor even further.
