Healthy Sandwich

Healthy sandwich ideas the kids won't turn their nose up at:

• Try using a variety of breads to keep things interesting. Bread rolls, baguettes, bagels, mountain bread and crisp bread crackers can break up the monotony of a Vegemite sandwich on sliced white.
• Try making sandwiches with one slice white and one of wholemeal, or use white bread with added fibre.
• Use spreads like butter or margarine sparingly and try using sticky fillings that pack in some nutrients. A smear of avocado or hummus might do the trick.
