Variations & Tips
For picky eaters, consider using peanut butter and jelly as a filling for a sweet twist on these sandwiches. You can also swap out the deli meats and cheese for your family’s favorites, like salami and provolone. For a vegetarian option, try using hummus and thinly sliced cucumbers or roasted red peppers. Feel free to get creative and mix and match ingredients to suit everyone’s tastes. And don’t forget to involve your kids in the preparation – it’s a fun way to spend time together and get them excited about trying new flavors.
