These New Sandwich Forms Add a Twist to Classic Recipes

Creative cooks are constantly coming up with new sandwich recipes that focus on what’s on the inside, but these creations start from the outside, replacing go-to sandwich buns with unusual alternatives.

As gluten is a real buzzword now when it comes to health, some of these recipes even ditch bread entirely in favor of vegetable-based wraps and containers. However, there are still plenty of bizarre sandwiches that swap out bread for crusts made from noodles, cereal and bacon that will appeal to junk food lovers.

As wacky as these sandwiches may seem, some of these novel ideas have even proven to be viable at a commercial level, like Wendy’s Pretzel Bun and Dunkin’ Donuts’ Breakfast Sandwich, which is naturally made from two donuts.
