Ask a question about this stepSpread cheese on both sides of bread; layer on Canadian bacon and sopressata. Ribbon yellow mustard on one side of bread.

Ask a question about this stepthanks, boulangere, now you've got me thinking of all the great mustards you could add to this....:-)
I picked up a wasabi mustard at the Farmers Market last Saturday that may just have this written all over it. Truly love your combination!
The daughter and I recently returned from Italy and France, where she was enchanted to find goat cheese in little logs similar to the Laughing Cow rounds we find here. We bought a net bag of them to take off to the Champs Elysées for a standing picnic at the finish of the Tour de France. Your beautiful combination takes me right back there. I've got a 3-day baguette going to make it this weekend. Thank you so much!
What a wonderful picture you evoke with your description. One of my favorite meal memories is a baguette, brie, butter, pate a bottle of wine and sitting in the park in Paris eating in the afternoon.....thank you for sharing --you have made my day...;-)
That's a snack I'd like to eat!
Thanks, testkitchenette!

Love, love, love soppresatta! This looks truly heavenly, all the better for that good spinach and some great mustard.
