Kids get bored easily even with food, especially with sandwiches. Sandwiches look unappealing on the outside, so children end up trading them with their classmates for junk food. Worse, they will leave their baon untouched.
To avoid this, moms must always make sure that the sandwiches they prepare are always as tasty as they are nutritious. Here are some healthy sandwich ideas that will leave kids craving for more bites and less tradeoffs.
First, moms must put in mind that kids rarely, if not never, enjoy dry and bland sandwiches. This is why it always pays to choose the right kind of sandwich spread — one that can enhance any recipe’s texture and flavor, as it provides the right amount of nutrition. Sandwich spread like peanut butter, jam, and mayonnaise easily fall under this definition.
Lady’s Choice Real Mayonnaise is rich in Omega 3 that is good for the heart. It also contains a significant amount of good fats that can help energize the body without leading to possible cardiovascular diseases or obesity.
Aside from its rich nutritional content, Lady’s Choice Real Mayonnaise also has a mild flavorful taste that complements a wide array of ingredients. This makes sandwich fillings more appealing to the taste buds and at the same time meets the child’s daily nutritional needs.
Pairing mayonnaise with tasty food items like roast beef, tuna, ham, and shredded chicken is another surefire way of sprucing up any sandwich recipe. The protein content from these fillings can help kids develop strong and healthy muscles. Mayonnaise is also a perfect match for other healthy sandwich ingredients like salads.
Kids are likely to take out the veggies and just go on with eating their choice parts of the sandwich. To avoid this, moms may choose to mince salad into tiny pieces that can blend unnoticed with mayonnaise and the main filling.
Another option is to add small amounts of healthy but tasteless additives like powdered malunggay, an ingredient rich in vitamins A and C, protein, iron, and potassium.
These techniques can boost nutritional value without affecting the overall taste of the sandwich.
