These are our “fishing sandwiches”. I bake them the night before when its cooler out, refrigerate overnight and pack ‘em in the morning.

This is the original recipe from “Aunt Jenny’s Favorite Recipes” The “Spry” shortening cooking book from around the 1940′s or so. I looked for a date and couldn’t find one but the book is missing a few pages.

I’m sure that our creative cooks here can come up with endless fillings for these, not just ham.
