    Whenever I’m knee deep in things like cheesecake, I always crave something green.

    I’m busy busy busy making wedding desserts, leaving little time for dinner and a real craving for something that doesn’t smell like sugar. These balsamic and sun-dried tomato chicken sandwiches are both easy and satisfying with their savory dressing coating bright leaves of arugula.

    Top down view of two Balsamic and Sun-Dried Tomato Sandwiches and a glass of water.

    These sandwiches are loaded with flavor, fiber and protein. The arugula and garlic are slightly spicy while the balsamic vinegar and sun-dried tomatoes give it a bit of tang. Use rotisserie chicken to cut down on prep time. If for some reason I only have sun-dried tomatoes that are not packed in oil, I just add a slight drizzle of olive oil to the mix.

    Sandwiches are classic lunch fare. Since we generally eat leftovers, peanut butter sandwiches, or salads for lunch, I like to mix things up by making sandwiches for supper every now and then. A hearty sandwich with some fresh fruit or crunchy carrots can be a really nice meal at the end of a hot day. Are we still having hot days? I saw Christmas decorations out at Hobby Lobby the other day, sooo I might be confused.

      Oh, I love the idea of balsamic with the sun drieds! I love those little suckers, and I just stocked the pantry with more. Perfect timing. I’m thinking these would be delish on all sorts of things. Thanks!
