Sandwiches + Burgers + Wraps
Honestly, we’ll eat a sandwich or burger pretty much any time of day, so if you’re like us, you’re in the right spot to find a whole lotta love squeezed between slices of fluffy bread, potato buns, tortillas, waffles, bagels, biscuits, or the occasional chocolate cake (because we consider frozen ice cream or cheesecake smushed in between slices of cake or cookies to be a sandwich too)!

Cheeseburger quesadillas with smoky burger sauce are what I like to call lazy cheeseburgers.
