ABC sandwiches have been a favorite in our family of 8 since the recipe first appeared in TOH. I was unable to cook for 18 mos. due to a severe shoulder injury that gave me the use of only one arm & hand. My son, who took over cooking duties during that time, made these sandwiches quite often because they are easy to make & quick & soooo good! Wonderful any time of the year, but especially in the summer! I should mention that we leave out the walnuts, eggs, & tomatoes. Most of my kids were small when I started making these & they didn't like those ingredients. Recipe is excellent without them, but I have to admit that the walnuts DO sound good!

Made this recipe for a baby shower. It is so good and everyone enjoyed these sandwiches. Since we were doing a brunch, we served the spread on toasted English Muffins. So delicious!

This is my favorite cheese sandwich recipe. I make it for church picnics, family get togethers and sometimes just for home lunches. Really touches all the good comfort spots!

We love these at our house. I really thought my husband would not like it, but he does. Great flavor and texture.
