Snazzy Sandwich for your kiddo!

I was tired of making the same ham & cheese sandwich for my kid's for their lunch.
So, I got a little creative one day and this is what I came up with:

 

Cute, don't you think?
Very easy to make.
1. Sliced celery for the eyebrows.
2. Sliced cherry tomatoes and carrots for the eyes.
3. Cheese slices for the teeth.
4. Lunch meat for the tongue.


I'm sure there are lots of variations you can make up.
My kids got a good laugh out of these sandwiches and wouldn't you know it, they ate the whole thing!
Show me your sandwich creation!

Simple stir fry recipe

Teriyaki Pork Stir Fry
Simple recipe I made from my Weight watchers Ultimate flex & core cookbook.
  • 4 tsp. sunflower oil
  • 1lb. pork tenderloin, cut into 1 x 1/4 inch thick strips
  • 1/4 lb. fresh shitake mushrooms, stems removed and sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into thin strips
  • 1 Tablespoon grated, peeled fresh ginger
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 lb. fresh snow peas, trimmed and halved lengthwise
  • 1/4 cup reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 3 Tablespoons reduced sodium teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tsp. grated orange zest
  1. Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium high heat until a drop of water sizzles. Pour in 2 teaspoons of the oil and swirl to coat the pan, then add half the pork. Stir fry until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer the pork to a plate with a slotted spoon. Repeat with the remaining pork.
Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in the same skillet over medium high heat. Add the mushrooms and stir fry until they begin to soften, about 1 minute. Add the bell pepper, ginger and garlic; stir fry until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add the pork and snow peas; stir fry until the snow peas turn bright green, about 1 minute. Add the broth, teriyaki sauce, and orange zest; cook until the sauce thickens slightly and the vegetables are crisp tender, about 1 minute.


Prep: 15 minutes
