To make an Herb Cheese Sandwich, layer cheese and fresh herbs between slices of bread. Parsley, dill, rocket, or lettuce work well; add tomato or cucumber if you like, but dry washed greens thoroughly so they do not make the bread soggy.
Parsley, dill, chives, and basil all work well in an Herb Cheese Sandwich. Choose herbs that complement your cheese, and chop leafy herbs finely so their flavour is distributed through each bite rather than concentrated in one spot.
A mild, sliceable cheese is an easy choice for an Herb Cheese Sandwich, while a soft cheese makes a creamier filling. For a toasted version, choose cheese that melts well; fresh herbs can be added after heating to preserve their flavour.
Yes, you can grill an Herb Cheese Sandwich. Brush or lightly butter the outside of the bread and cook until crisp and the cheese softens; add delicate fresh herbs after grilling if you want them to keep their colour and fresh taste.
Sourdough, whole-wheat bread, and sturdy sandwich bread all hold an Herb Cheese Sandwich well. A bread with a firm crumb is especially useful if you are adding juicy vegetables, since it is less likely to soften quickly.
Yes, tomato goes well in an Herb Cheese Sandwich, adding freshness and acidity to the cheese. Pat tomato slices dry and add them just before eating, or place them between the cheese and bread to help keep the bread from getting soggy.
Keep an Herb Cheese Sandwich from getting soggy by drying the herbs well, using firm bread, and limiting wet fillings. If packing it for later, carry tomato separately and add it just before eating; refrigerate the sandwich in a sealed container.
Yes, you can make an Herb Cheese Sandwich ahead for lunch and keep it refrigerated in a sealed container. For better texture, leave juicy vegetables out until serving and use dry herbs; avoid leaving a cheese sandwich unrefrigerated for an extended time.
An Herb Cheese Sandwich pairs well with a simple salad, vegetable sticks, or soup. For a lighter lunch, serve it with fresh vegetables; if the sandwich is already filling, a small side is usually enough.
You can freeze an Herb Cheese Sandwich, but fresh herbs may turn limp and watery after thawing, and the bread can lose its texture. It is usually better to freeze the bread and cheese separately, then add fresh herbs when assembling.

An Herb Cheese Sandwich brings cheese and fresh herbs together between slices of bread. The cheese, herbs and bread can vary, so it is better understood as a simple sandwich combination than a dish tied to one particular region. Parsley, dill or chives work well, adding a fresh note to the cheese’s creamy, savoury taste.
It makes an easy breakfast or lunch, travels well for work or school, and can be served with a cup of tea or coffee. The bread contributes much of its carbohydrate, while the cheese provides some protein: each 100 g contains 9.2 g. Add tomatoes or crisp greens for freshness, or choose wholegrain bread for a heartier version.
