Mini-Sub Sandwiches

Plain sandwiches can get boring: Bring a mini sub instead! I like to get the packages of mini bolo loaves (or you can use dinner rolls) in the bakery section of the grocery store. I slice them in half like hamburger buns.

Pack the bun with your favorite meats and sandwich spread. Place lettuce and/or your favorite veggies in a separate container so they don't wilt or get runny sitting in the sandwich. Then, put it together when it's time to eat

Suggestions: sliced cucumbers, pickles, avocado slices, banana peppers, spinach leaves, bean or alfalfa sprouts, sliced jicama.

I often bring these sliced loaves and sandwich fixings to feed my students during extracurricular events. They put together what they want, and they love it!
