As you know, I love sandwiches and creating fun sandwiches with leftovers. This Salmon Pesto Sandwich took advantage of both grill salmon from the night before and the Compound Pesto Butter I made as well. The only bummer, there was no one at home to share them with me. I made this one all for myself :).
Salmon Pesto Sandwich
Consider this an occupational hazard of a food blogger with kids away at college. Sometimes, I just have to appreciate the work myself. I think my arm is breaking with me patting myself on the back so hard. Ow. Well, if you are cooking for yourself, then make something you like. I love salmon.
We have it every week and I always buy extra so I can make a sandwich or throw it in a wrap. Below are a couple of the salmon sandwiches I have made in the past.
Smoked Salmon Wrap
Blackened Salmon Sandwich
- 1 - 3 oz piece of grilled salmon
- 2 pieces Italian bread
- 2 tablespoons pesto butter
- 2 slices yellow tomato
- Red and green cabbage
- Add the pesto butter to the bread and grill in a pan on medium high heat for 2 minutes until golden brown.
- Now layer the sandwich, starting with the salmon, then the tomatoes and finish with the slaw.
- Serve and enjoy!

THIS is a REAL sandwich. I love salmon. It’s nice and thick. I prefer toast for the bread.
This works for me.
Carol, the sandwich was hearty without feeling to filling.
Sounds Like a pretty great problem to have 🙂 this sandwich looks delish!
Thx Sam. Love to use those leftovers.
Fantastic flavor profile with this sandwich and another great use of salmon! Thanks for sharing this one.
Thx Dan. My wife and I just love salmon so we have it all the time.
