  • These cheese, Spam and pimentos spread sandwiches are a staple of every Puerto Rican children's party. The sandwichitos de mezcla come in squares, triangles and always without bread crust. I swear I also remember them in different colors when I was a kid. Anyone else?
    Here's another recipe that's quick, easy, turns out ugly but delicious.
    Make sure you watch until the end for the bonus track so you can see what my cameraman aka my husband puts up with during these shoots. Why my family calls him "el pobre Steve".

    I remember my grandma making these for our parties and gatherings. She used white onion and green onion.
    I even remember some having white onion, green onion and chopped cilantro.
    Now I need to call my grandma to reminisce on the good ole days😊.

    This recipe is surprising to me . I grew up eating these and my mom would use deli spiced ham and sliced ham along with American cheese and jarred pimentos . They were delicious. She is in her late seventies and still makes them today.

    Ay no que rico. Yo crecí en Venezuela y haciamos unos sandwiches parecidos pero con Diablito. Jamón endiablado en lata. Acá en USA es deviled ham. Un manjar. Me voy a animar a preparar estos para mí cumpleaños y probar algo nuevo.

And yes, the bread used to come in different colors and that's how bakeries used to get "fancy" with them lol I personally love to cut them in different shapes with cookie cutters.

    SPAM can be replaced with cashews, white beans, garbanzos and other stuff. The key to a great flavor is pimientos morrones with some of the juice. Im no vegan, but spam/jamonilla is disgusting. lol
