I had such a blast visiting Sara & Jaque this morning over at NBC New York Live. In honor of National Sandwich Month, I shared some of my favorite sandwich ideas with the ladies of NBC. They were so fun! I can’t wait to go cook with them again!
Watch the video and tweet @NewYorkLiveTV and let them know what you thought!
