Prepare the Sandwich Ingredients

Cut out the 'Treasure Chests'

Take two slices of bread and using a sharp knife or a round cookie cutter, cut out a rectangular shape from the top slice to resemble the lid of a treasure chest. This will create a hollow space to fill with your delectable sandwich fillings. Set aside the lid for now. Don't worry if your 'chest' looks a bit wonky, pirates aren't known for their perfectionism!

Assemble the 'Treasure Chest Sandwiches'

Now it's time to pile on the goodies! On the bottom slice of bread, layer your chosen deli meats, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and any other fillings you desire. Be generous with the portions, as this is a pirate's feast! Once you're satisfied with your sandwich fillings, carefully position the 'lid' on top of the sandwich, creating the illusion of a closed treasure chest. Your taste buds are already plundering!

4

Secure with Toothpicks

To ensure your treasure doesn't spill out, gently insert a couple of toothpicks through the 'lid' and into the bottom slice of bread, holding the sandwich securely together. Remember to remove the toothpicks before anyone takes a bite, unless you want an unexpected dental adventure!
