There are so many different types of breads available now in the supermarket that can be used to make sandwiches. Try ciabatta, granary bread, mini pita pockets, mini baguettes, bagels etc..

To keep the sandwiches fresh wrap in cling film of foil and its good if you can store them in a small plastic container in your child’s lunchbox to prevent them getting squashed.

This is one of my favourite sandwiches.
