I can’t believe my weekend in Vermont is all over. How sad.
BUT, Mal and I already have a plan in the works to visit again this fall. Hopefully, I can make it until then!
Breakfast
After a late-night of partying, we ended up sleeping in a little bit. Once we got moving, Mal, Murphy, and I headed out to grab iced coffees for everyone while Dave and Marie started on breakfast.

Dave made us egg and cheese sandwiches on toasted English muffins.

I also shared a cherry turnover with Marie. Delish!

After breakfast, we went downtown to Church Street again. This time, we brought the dogs and let them explore. There’s always a ton of dogs on Church Street, so they had a great time meeting new friends on our walk.

Lunch
For lunch, we stopped by my favorite sandwich shop ever: The Red Onion Cafe. (There was no way I was visiting Burlington without eating a Red Onion sandwich!)

The Red Onion Sandwich is made with roasted turkey breast, Vermont Smoked Maple Cheddar, red onion, sliced Granny Smith apple, bacon, and sun-dried tomato mayo. The Vermont Smoked Maple Cheddar is actually a new-ish addition to the Red Onion sandwich. It used to be made with smoked Gruyere cheese, which is how Mal and I make them at home.

Best sandwich ever!!!

I’m not sure what’s for dinner tonight, but I’m thinking something light and healthy. Perhaps a salad with some feta crumbles on top? My body wants to get back on track after the weekend I just had. Yowsahs!
Enjoy your Sunday night!

I haven’t been to VT in forever! You make me want to plan a trip up there!

When you have a favorite place to heat it hurts to leave without grabbing a bite there. I am so glad to see you got your sandwich and had so much fun.
I’m going to Burlington next weekend and this is making me very excited!!
What a great weekend, looks like a blast! And that sandwich looks so tasty

Enjoy it!
I thought I saw you (I saw a thin dark haired woman with a pug) on the Esplanade today, but then I remembered that you were in VT. Sounds like a great weekend!
Ohhh that sandwich looks and sounds delic! What a fun looking weekend!
That sandwich looks amazingggg!
Lunch looked really good, love sandwiches.
I’d never heard of apple in sandwiches before I started reading your blog. It must be such an American thing.. it still boggles my mind a little!
I hate onions…but I loove the idea of crisp green apples on a sandwich.
Church St. looks so cute!
Holey moley that sandwich looks fantastic!
i know what you mean about wanting to get back on track…indulgent weekends are a blast, but it’s always nice to feel like you’re eating super healthy again!
It’s so great you have a girly to share something with. It always feels better than eating a whole cherry turnover by yourself, haha.
that looks like an amazing sandwich!! Too bad you can’t order those online
Apples slices on the sandwich? Sounds just crazy enough to try…
Burlington looks so cute! Which cheese did you like better on the sandwich? Maple cheddar sounds so good!!
Glad you had a fun trip! Any plans to move there in the future since you love it so much?
I know the feeling. My body always craves that balance after a more indulgent weekend. It’s what makes it all part of healthy living though. Glad you had so much fun!
I definitely need to recreate that sandwich for myself .. or just travel to Vermont
Apple, cheese and turkey is one of my favourite combinations! That sandwich looks amazing!
So the onions are raw?! Sorry, I’m not a fan of raw onions. Take em out and that sandwich is very very appetising. I think it’s high time for me to start trying apple slices in my sandwiches!
Wei-Wei
@Tina: Totally. My body doesn’t want any more booze or junk!
the bread on the sandwich looks so soft and smooshy and perfect. yummmm.
HOLY YUM!!! That sandwich….I can’t even! It has every ingredient I love!
