Tips and Tricks
• Instead of tomato sauce, it goes really well with mustard sauce and mayonnaise.
• I have also tried to add some cooked mashed vegetables inside the sandwich. It goes really well and is a good way to sneak in some vegetables in the child’s diet.
• For a child less than one year, use only egg yolk for this recipe.
• You can cut the bread slices into different shapes to retain the interest of the child.
• A lot of times, I have also narrated stories (like in this case, the story of a duck would be interesting) while feeding my kiddo.
