‘food on-the-go’ is a must when you are busy with kids and always rushing from swimming lessons to soccer practice or any other extra-curricular activities.
My son’s sports day was one of those days when ‘food on-the-go’ was a necessity. The idea was to make quick prep, easy to eat, mess-free food which was healthy and delicious, of course.
I made Chinese chicken slaw sliders (recipe to follow soon) and as a vegetarian option, these super easy pesto potato sandwiches. And as a sweet treat, sweet potato brownie skewers for dessert.
These sandwiches were incredibly moist and creamy, with just a hint of chilli after each bite…..yum!
Yum
