We decided to encourage our nippers to be enthusiastic about food and show their creative genius in the kitchen, and came up with the idea of Crazy Sandwich Saturday. No rules, no boundaries, just "invent a sandwich"....
Sam called his the "Three Course Sandwich", a butty that held an entire meal in one go....starter tomato soup, main course chicken curry and chips, dessert was various choccie stuff....although parts of each course did find their way into other areas.....It was so big that it needed two plates.
First-cousin Emma made a wrap starting with a layer of chocolate spread followed by precisely placed popcorn and a sprinkle of popping candy.
Sam's cousin Noel decided to go for a breakfast sandwich. First on went a fried egg plus a rasher of bacon. To follow a thin spread of strawberry jam and slices of cheese. To top it off a last layer of coco pops!
Cousin Emma (Noel's missus, Emma's mum, and my niece!) went for a sandwich based on her favourite dessert. A layer of Philadelphia and one of strawberry jam. A last sprinkle of digestive biscuits finished her cheesecake inspired snack.
I made the Four Mammal Melt, a vegetarian's worst nightmare....layered ham (pig), sliced venison sausage (deer), fried lamb's kidneys (errr, sheep), topped with melted goat's cheese.
That was our Crazy Sandwich Saturday. What kind of food do you think we should do for our next crazy food day?
