One of my favorite lunch places for a quick light bite to eat is 100 Montaditos. Montaditos are these mini baguette like sandwiches that are a staple of the culinary arts in Spain. The crunchy exterior and soft fluffy inside is the perfect blank canvas for a variety of flavors. Some of my favorites from the shop is this Brie, arugula, honey mustard and fried onions version and a lox version. I decided to pick of some of their patented bread the next time I was in Miami and made montaditos 4 ways at home. They sell the unbaked bread at the restaurant and you can take it home and freeze them until ready to use! The tomato mozzarella version and philly cheesesteak version were made with leftovers from 2 previous recipes which I have linked in the ingredients section.
