Today is Earth Day. There is no other place like the amazing planet we call home. Today, people the world over are celebrating the individuals, communities, organizations, and governments that take action to protect it. Every year on April 22, more than one billion people take part in Earth Day.
This year’s Earth Day theme focuses on not only the planet’s ongoing climate change that continues to negatively impact people, animals, and environments, but also on other Faces of Climate Change – those actively doing something about it.
Lindo’s is proud to be one of those faces. We genuinely care about Bermuda’s environment and the health and welfare of our entire planet. We are committed to doing our part where and whenever we can to protect the Earth for future generations.
“Climate change has very real effects on people, animals, and the ecosystems and natural resources on which we all depend. Left unchecked, they’ll spread like wildfire.
Every person who does his or her part to fix the problem
is a Face of Climate Change.”
Working with nutritionists, chefs, companies and other experts, the Grain Foods Foundation has put together this great-tasting recipe for you and your family. This hearty classic Pastrami Reuben sandwich comes from celebrated Chef Bryan Voltaggio.
Ingredients
12 slices rye bread
24 ounces sliced beef pastrami
12 slices Muenster cheese, thin
1 1/2 cups sauerkraut, prepared and drained
1/2 cup Thousand Island dressing
2 ounces butter, at room temperature
Preparation
Lay out two slices of rye bread on a cutting board.
Top first piece of bread with one slice of Muenster cheese, then about 2 ounces of sauerkraut, 4 ounces (or roughly three to four thin slices) of pastrami, and a second slice of Muenster cheese. Set aside.
Spread second piece of bread with Thousand Island dressing, then place on top of the other half of the sandwich.
Brush top and bottom of sandwich with butter.
If you own an electric sandwich maker or Panini press, place sandwich inside for 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 minutes. If you don’t have a sandwich press, simply place sandwich in a sauté pan on top of your stove, set at medium heat. Cook for 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 minutes on each side.
Remove sandwich and while still hot; cut in half and serve.
