Vegetable Sandwich


Sandwich is a snack which most kids relish. It is one of the best ways in which we could sneak in veggies into kids' stomachs. Thanks to the Americans and Europeans who gave us this interesting item. We could make it healthier by using whole wheat/multigrain bread.

Ingredients Used:

For green chutney:
5 green chillies as per spice level
Half bunch coriander leaves
4 garlic cloves
Salt to taste and one spoon of lemon juice.
Grind the above to a smooth thick paste add very little water.

Sliced veggies used:
 Cucumber, carrot, capsicum, tomatoes and onions. Boiled and sliced eggs could be used(optional). You could also add fresh spinach and lettuce leaves for more fibre content in your sandwich.

How to make:

Take 2 slices of bread. Spread butter on both the sides using a butter knife. Then, spread the green chutney and place the veggies of your choice.  Grill the sandwich using a little ghee or butter  on the outer sides of the bread slice on a skillet/ rava or in a sandwich maker. Serve hot with/without tomato ketchup.
