Japan

Japan (#15) Onigirazu (Rice Ball Sandwich)

According to Japan Times, this "sandwich" was chosen as the top dish for 2015.  It's a take on onigiri but is much easier to make and uses non-traditional Japanese fillings.  I looked at a lot of recipes and watched You Tube videos and there are endless fillings that can be used.  I made my first one with Canadian bacon, Swiss cheese and avocado.  A square of sushi rice is placed on the nori seaweed sheet, then topped with the fillings and a final topping of more rice.  It's wrapped in plastic wrap then cut to reveal the layers of filling.  Other fillings that can be used are layers of fresh vegetables or eggs, ham and cheese, pork cutlet, or teriaki chicken.  Just about anything can be put together for an easy on-the-go lunch.
