Snack's sandwiches

I love a good sandwich - a great way to help me get my 5 A DAY. Here are some of my favourites...

Fish food

Try making this tasty sandwich!

Main sandwich: wholemeal sliced bread with boiled-egg slices and sliced tomato filling

Eye: sliced boiled egg and olive

Tail: lettuce leaves

Fins: cucumber slices

Sandwich kebabs

Try making some yummy picnic kebabs.

To make these kebabs I used houmous and spinach as the fillings, and then put chunks of apple, cheese, cucumber and tomato on my kebab sticks too.

Make sure you ask an adult to help you push the food onto the sticks - they can be quite sharp!

Monster crunch

I love this monster munch sandwich! This is how you make it...

Main sandwich: wholemeal sliced bread with houmous and grated carrot filling.

Eyes: sliced boiled egg and olive

Nose: cherry tomato

Mouth: red pepper

Bap face

I had lots of fun making this bap into a face - see which faces you can make...

For the filling in this sandwich I used lettuce, cheese, houmous and red pepper.

Remember to use wholegrain bread if you can because it's better for you than white bread.

Crazy crab

This is another one of my favourites...

Main sandwich: wholemeal roll with low-fat cheese and tomato filling

Eyes: low-fat cream cheese and black olive

Legs: cucumber sticks

I love these seedy bagels! The pumpkin seeds on the top contain protein, which helps our bodies grow.

I filled this bagel with tuna, tomatoes and cucumber.

Sandwich stars

I used a pastry cutter to make these sandwich stars. The rest of the gang loved them!

I put spinach on a piece of bread and put the stars on top. I added some hummus and a bit of red pepper too. Around the edge I put tomato and cucumber.

You could cut your sandwiches to make all sorts of other shapes - can you think of some?
