The Monster Sandwich

Ever since our monster playdate, we've had monsters on our mind!

This is what we ate for lunch today:
The slightly scary but oh-so-yummy monster sandwich!  
We couldn't help but cackle wickedly while eating every bite!
You can easily make a monster sandwich with what you have on hand in your own crisper drawer.  But this is what we used for ours:
* Lunch meat for face
* Sprouts for hair/fur
* Cucumbers for eyes
* Olives for eye balls
* Cheese for nose
* Cherry tomatoes for mouth
* Pickle for tongue

Many times, my food crafts are not even close to being healthy.  But with this fresh yumminess served on whole wheat bread, it's a perfectly healthy meal.

I hope you enjoy a healthy snack with your own little monsters!
Cheers!

  4. Great idea...I wish I could get my little guy to eat healthy stuff like that! I love me a cucumber sandwich and have tried to get him to eat one too...not going to happen! Any suggestions on getting a 2 year old boy to eat healthier? Or any kid for that matter?
