Now that we are back to school, it means back to packing daily lunches. Ham & Cheese get old pretty fast, so I like to change things up. Banana & Peanut Butter Roll Ups are easy to make, and Sawyer thinks they are fantastic. Another one of Sawyer's favorites is when I make fun sandwiches with leftovers. Taco Sandwiches are one he looks forward to as well. We keep King's Hawaiian Rolls on … [Read more...]
