Sandwich Filling Ideas

Heaps of sandwich filling ideas for kids school lunches. Find some lunchbox inspiration with over 100 sandwich filling suggestions for those days when you just can’t make another vegemite sandwich!

The good old sandwich is lunchbox staple for a reason, it is quite fast to make and put together, and the bread is a perfect vehicle for all sorts of sandwich filling contents. I recently asked on Instagram what was people’s favourite sandwich filling and got some wonderful suggestions from members of our community, plus some more unusual ones that I’m keen to try. I’ve put together a comprehensive list of sandwich filling ideas to help you with your lunchbox packing for back to school. If you’re looking for ideas that aren’t sandwiches have a look at my 20 non-sandwich lunch ideas.

I thought about introducing my review of the Miele I thought about introducing my review of the Miele Triflex HXI Pro with a vacuum joke… but then realised they always suck (sorry, I couldn’t help myself – lol!)
 
In all honesty though, I have a lot of boxes I like ticked when picking the perfect vacuum cleaner. Visit the link in my bio to see if Miele’s first handstick vacuum managed to tick all these boxes for me!

My day has consisted of a moment of binge watching My day has consisted of a moment of binge watching Firefly Lane. Then running kids around. 

I’m putting a candle on to sit for a moment. Then it involves more mums taxi. I’ll cherish these moments though cause they will stop soon enough. Then what am I going to do when I’m not running kids around? Ooh the thought 🤪
White Chocolate and Cranberry Cookies 🍪⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This recipe was contributed by Tracey (a lovely member of our community!). She suggests using an ice cream scoop to shape the cookies, which should give them a lovely rippled texture on top. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The base recipe without the white chocolate and cranberries can be used for any alternative ingredients like dark choc bits and macadamias. The full recipe is on my blog! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
PS - I would suggest adjusting the sugar quantities to your own tastes if you prefer cookies to be less sweet! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
