Freezing Sandwiches
Many sandwiches can be frozen. If they don't include mayonnaise, the end result will be better. Wrap sandwiches well in plastic wrap, label, and freeze for up to three months. You can let them thaw in a lunchbox until it's time for lunch, or wrap them in foil and bake in a 350°F oven for 15 to 25 minutes until warm, depending on the size of the sandwich.
