Chicken Salami Sandwich

          This is a delicious and a sumptuous American style breakfast, layered with mayonnaise, tomato ketchup, lettuce, cheese slices, chicken salami, onion and some tomatoes. It is absolutely a simple and a no frills breakfast that can be dished out in a jiffy. 

           It is no doubt a meal on the go and this sandwich can also be made with brown or white bread slices as per individual preference. This happens to be my most favored breakfast any day.

• 6 slices of chicken salami
• 3 slices of cheese
• tomato ketchup as required
• mayonnaise as required
• sliced tomato as required
• sliced onion as required

           Spread the tomato ketchup on one side of a bread and mayonnaise on the other bread. Place one salami over one bread slice, followed by a cheese slice, lettuce, onion, tomato, another salami and a sprinkle of some pepper powder. 

          Close with the bread slice that has mayonnaise spread over it. Make another two sandwiches in the similar manner and enjoy as it is for breakfast, snack or when desired.
