Jimmy Johns California Beach Club: The remix


OK, before you read, know this: It's only a sandwich. Nothing special, not necesarily a "recipe" even, but if you've never had it. . .here you go.

I'm sure you've all been to Jimmy John's. . .and if you're lucky, you've all tried the number 11! The California Beach Club. Turkey, cheese, sprouts, cucumbers, tomato, and my fave: Avocado. It is amazing. Yes, I know, it's only a sandwich, but I happen to LOVE sandwiches. My husband and I recently had a conversation about our mutual love of sandwiches. "If you could only eat one kind of food, for the rest of your life, what would it be?" That's simple, "Sandwiches!" You can do anything with them! Hot sandwiches, cold sandwiches, open-faced sandwiches, sub sandwiches, panini sandwiches. . .the list goes on. You gotta try the Jimmy Johns version. You can't beat their bread, but when preparing for a crowd, make these!!!

I made them on croissants, but normally I'll buy a big loaf of french bread at Sam's Club, and make them that way.

California Beach Club

Croissants or French Bread

Turkey

Provolone Cheese ( I did provolone and cheddar)

Thinly sliced Cucumbers

Thinly sliced Tomato

Alfalfa Sprouts

Shredded Lettuce

Mayo

Avocado

Salt, Pepper, and Garlic Powder

Few shakes of lime juice

1. Mash up your avocado with salt and pepper. Add in some garlic powder and lime juice.

2. Spread the bottom half of you sandwich with Avocado Spread.

3. Spread the top half of your sandwich with mayo.

4. On the bottom of the sandwich, layer cheese, turkey, cucumber, tomato, alfalfa sprouts, and lettuce.

5. Fold sandwich shut, and CHOW DOWN!

  1. Jimmy John's doesn't have a California Club. It's just the Beach Club and it's 12 on the menu. Mayo, Tomato, Cucumber, lettuce, Turkey breast slices, provolone cheese and avocado spread.
