I am at a loss for ideas for Sandwich fillings for my 13mo.

He likes to have a sandwich as part of his lunch each day but even an Aussie kid can only eat so much Vegemite!!!

He is not allergic to anything but I have not introduced any nut products yet.

I am very interested in what other mum's are preparing, any tips?

?

cream cheese, honey, homous, avocado mashed up. these are all good as they stick together.

my dd is not the best with sandwiches - she just pulls them apart.....

cheese, mashed up egg (i add mayonnaise if i have over boiled), ham, chicken

Paté, salami, chorizo, boiled egg, mayo and chives mashed up, homemade jam, ham, turkey...

the only thing I can get any of mine to eat are plain bread and butter sarnies

I am sooooooo envious of all of you ladies and your adventerous kids

My DS#2 loves cream cheese and chives. His next favourite sandwich is avacordo and banana mash with tofu.

This is great!
Some I have tried and he won't eat, some I look forward to trying!
Keep them coming!!!

I wish mine would eat something other than peanut butter and jam (the sugar free stuff at least!). Zander's decided it's his favourite and Nathaniel follows whatever his brother does ...

Good luck

Actually, N eats more if we just cut up buttered bread and pop bits of cheese, turkey, tomato and cucumber on the plate with the bread. Sandwiches are just pulled apart

He does love peanut butter though

My dd loves Ham, Cheese and Tomato sandwiches...and also loves that toasted....

Also, Chicken, Avocado, Cheese, Beetroot and Carrot...that is another one of her favourites.

Loves Tuna and Salad too...

Pretty much any jarred baby food spread on bread works too

*Amy* · « **Reply #13 on:** April 20, 2009, 15:46:18 pm »

Hommus, peanut butter, guacamole, ham with mayo, hard boiled egg with mayo, cheese on toast with Mayo (we are a mayo house, even have it on pizza!!)
Oh and Marmite too!

Lissybits · « **Reply #14 on:** April 20, 2009, 16:51:48 pm »

Yeh - we have a toastie machine that has been worth its weight in gold

Great for tea time with various fillings

I honestly don't believe my children can be my own - I'd live off sandwiches if I could (and kind of do!).

totally need ideas, DS nor i are sandwhich eaters but I'd love to get him intereste donly to get a break form a full hot meal for him 2 times a day!

Instead of sandwiches you could try pita pockets? I buy the mini pita bread, cut them in half and let dd stuff them herself. There's a platter of luncheon meats or chicken cubes, cheese slices, cucumbers or shredded lettuce or whatever veggie I have available. Takes no time to prepare at all 5 min max. DS is beginning to eat them as well instead of picking them apart. lol

Oh, and we must have a pickle with all sandwiches or pita pockets.

Hi there,
Our favourite here is beans (mashed up) with shredded cheese. DS also likes Tofurkey (tofu deli "meat") with mayo and cheese! Sometimes we use tortilla wraps and roll them for a little more interest!!

My dd's all-time fave is organic blueberry preserves!!!! If we run out (or are broke!) we have used daddy's plain ol' grape jelly!! Yummy!!

Diana1981 · « **Reply #20 on:** April 25, 2009, 17:22:04 pm »

my ds loves peanut butter and jelly, cream cheese and jam, grilled cheese.....he hasn´t tried ham or any kind of meat

clazzat · « **Reply #21 on:** April 25, 2009, 18:36:14 pm »

dd's favourite sandwich for ages was cream cheese and spinach. Won't eat it now though...

You can try bagels too - we have them with cream cheese, or toasted with tomato and melted cheese (works on crumpets too).

Mmm good ideas ladies ... be back later to add ....

MeAndVee · « **Reply #23 on:** April 27, 2009, 00:34:57 am »

hummus on toast is a big hit around here....also chicken salad with pickles...lots of pickles!

mum101 · « **Reply #24 on:** May 05, 2009, 05:11:11 am »

A really yummy and complete sandwhich we tried recently.

Roast chicken pieces, mashed sweet potato mixed with cottage cheese. Really yum! The sweetness of the sweet potato goes really well with the chicken.
(I rubbed taco seasoning on some chicken pieces and roasted in oven).
