Any suggestions for sandwiches I can make up in advance and freeze for Christmas day.I saw some in Iceland but didn`t see what the fillings were.I guess some things will freeze better than others.They take time to do and it would be great just to defrost and serve !!

O.K snaggs and boo I see your point but as I am cooking a Full Christmas dinner for 14 I thought I deserved it a bit easier for teatime !!!
you cna freeze sandwiches? never heard of that, can you just get someone else to do it?
Just make them on the day....does not take long and they will taste better.
We're cooking for 9 of us on Christmas day - the full works as usual.

I wouldn't dream of making sandwiches in advance, then freezing them oxy - just in case nobody wanted any after being stuffed only a few hours before! We usualy have a light snack on Christmas night, you know cheese, biscuits, mince pies, etc, etc.

Save youself the trouble & enjoy yourself!
We usually make butties with the beef, turkey and ham that's left over from the dinner, so obviously not possible to make in advance.

I've3 never frozen butties- but wouldn't the bread go all soggy when you defrost 'em?
Mrs sqad says "How sensible, tell her smoked salmon.......must be fresh though"

Better than Turkey, turkey sandwiches, turkey salad, turkey curry................bloody Xmas.

Smoked sandwiches, Champagne, no bloody kids............Perfect Xmas.
Mind you, if anyone wanted a turkey or beef sandwich, it wouldn't take long to knock some up on the night.

Mind you, nobody ever asks for sandwiches & prefers to pick at the snacky spread, including cold meats.

Hi BOO, bet little one's looking forward to Father Christmas visiting!

I just thought that if you can freeze bread and you can freeze meat why can`t you freeze them together? Still thanks everyone for your input.
You don't know until you ask oxy - hope you & all have a lovely Christmas.
Try it before hand and see how well it defrosts.
if you google "freezing sandwiches" youll find a few ideas.

i don;t know oxy i just feel that if you made sanwhiches when you deforst them it will all go soggy. woyld you not just put a tray of cold cuts out with bread/pickles etc and let people make their own
you can freeze sandwiches, i used to make a weeks worth for both of us when we worked and just took a pack out each day., you just have to be a bit choosy about the fillings - nothing with lettuce or tomato. bread freezes and defrosts well, and so do sandwiches :)
don't think i'd be bothered making a load now to have on christmas day though, we're all usually too stuffed to want much for tea on christmas day. each to their own though, if you think it'll save you some time then go for it.

It`s good to know I can freeze sandwiches but you all seem to think it`s not worth it as they won`t get eaten maybe I`ll do just a few and have other bits as well. Thanks to everyone for taking the trouble to answer and a Happy Christmas to you all.
