Sandwiches in a Sandwich maker?

Just wondering what kind of sandwiches I could make in my sandwich maker other than grilled cheese. i'm talking about breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert recipes. Thanks!

1. put in meat with the cheese. but your favourite meats, cheeses, and sauces and top with things you like (i.e. pickles or tomatoes) and put it in your sandwhich maker
2. My husband likes ham, cheese and tomatoe
3. The banana sandwich is a really good dessert, you can have it with whipped topping or ala-mode by adding ice-cream on top. Pizza sandwiches are good too! Try scrambled egg with meat or maybe hot tuna. You can pretty much make any kind of sandwich in the sandwich maker. If you like a certain sandwich just cook it up!
4. raisin bread with nutella and strawberry jam Cinnamon rolls from a tube or other tube biscuits with pie filling use mashed potatoes and eggs with cut up ham and Swiss to make a croquette like breakfast dish make qesadillas with tortilla shells use wraps and any combination of meat, cheese and veggie fillings use prepared packaged stuffing mix inside thinly pounded chicken or pork cutlets
5. 1. Try stirring some peanut butter with honey and then spreading it on a slice of bread, then slice up a banana and place on top & sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Top with another piece of bread & cook. 2. For a dessert, try slicing up a loaf cake & spreaing it with honey butter (just honey & butter mixed) and making sandwiches with creamcheese & shaved chocolate. 3. butter the bread with garlic butter and fill it with leftover spaghetti 4. Try put on pizza sauce, pizza topping and cheese in between bread 5. mix up pancake batter, fill the wells halfway, then stick in a ready cooked sausage link. Then put a little more batter on top.
6. for breakfast try putting a scrambled egg (maybe scramble it in the microwave for quickness), a slice of ham, and cheese on an english muffin? or maybe asparagus instead of ham... lunch-try tuna, mozz. cheese and tomato on sourdough dinner- dunno dessert-corrisant, apple pie filling, cream cheese? hope it helps-never tried these things :)
7. My husband's favorite is two pieces of garlic bread and some shredded bbq chicken in between them, heat until the bread is kinda crispy on the outside and serve pickle spears--if you don't like garlic use regular bread with a little bit of mayo and a bit of bbq sauce. My daughter's favorite would be a kind of S'mores sandwich: cinnamon raisin bread, mini marshmellows and lots of Nutella chocolate; heat til it's all melted and the bread is a little crusty (YUMMY) Other than sandwiches you can make omelets in there, you can make filled fritters, French toast, fruit pancakes (breakfast) mini meatloaves, chicken cordon bleu, stuffed fish fillets,etc (dinner). E-mail me if you want some recipes.
8. Try adding your favorite pizza toppings onto bread or other kind of rolled out dough (the canned variety are quick and easy). My family love them!
9. many and any, you could even put in bits of leftovers. experiment in fun
10. I seriously love to do peanut butter and jelly.. since the sandwich maker closes it into a pocket, and then the peanut butter melts and it makes a nice warm ooze that is held in by a pocket. So fun.
11. you can use cake mixes and make little cakes in it... also try 2 slices of your favorite bread, put some pizza sauce on it and whatever toppings you like and make a pizza pocket... for breakfast you can make scrambled eggs even omelette's You know those cinnamon rolls in the freezer section close to the eggs and milk..those are excellent in them as well... there's endless possibilities...i have one myself
12. Ham, turkey, hard salami, and Swiss. Spread a thin layer of Mayo on the outside of the bread instead of butter. It is less greasy when done and adds a nice flavor to the sandwich.
13. (L) INGREDIENTS: 4 slices bread butter or margarine, softened 2 slices cheese PREPARATION: Spread butter or margarine on one side of each bread slice. Pre-heat sandwich maker for about 5 minutes. Place two slices of bread, butter side down, on the sandwich maker. Top with cheese, cover with remaining slices of bread, butter side up. Close the lid, and cook for about 3 minutes. Makes 2 sandwiches. Generous scoops of mint chocolate chip ice cream are sandwiched between homemade chocolate cookies, warm from the oven, for this melt-in-your-mouth dessert that kids adore. Ingredients 1 (18.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix 1 quart mint chocolate chip ice cream, softened Cooking Instructions 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet. 2. Mix cake mix according to package directions, omitting the eggs. Drop by large spoonfuls onto cookie sheet, mixture should be about the consistency of brownie batter. 3. Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cookies spring back when touched lightly in center. Cool completely. 4. To assemble, put a scoop of softened ice cream in the center of a cookie. Top with a similarly-sized cookie, wrap in plastic wrap, and gently press down to flatten out ice cream scoop. Freeze until serving.
14. For dinner/lunch I like to have cheese, ham, tomato & capsicum with pesto on the bread. You can pretty much cook anything on a sandwich maker - cook some bread, cook some bacon and then make a BLT. My mum also cooks eggs on ours and we have BELTs :P Also you could cook some bread, put the cheese on the bread on the sandwich maker and let it melt, then add some tuna and either have a tuna toasted sandwich or top that with lettuce and tomato for a tuna melt. Yum.
