It’s often super busy at our house around lunch time. No time for elaborate food prep. This is one of my go-tos for a quick, nutritious, and versatile sandwich spread. It can go into a tortilla also, or into a ‘green wrap’ with a large greens leaf for mom or for an adventurous kiddo!
This quick veggie sandwich spread can be made with tuna or chicken, and would work well with whatever veggies you have on hand.
Fish is full of nutritious goodness. But if your kids aren’t sold on eating fish, something i’ve done is mixed canned tuna or salmon together with canned chicken (assuming they enjoy chicken), to make it taste more familiar. To win them over in eating it at first, I also skipped the veggies and added dried cranberries. 🙂 Whatever it takes! Now they’ll typically eat it whichever way I prepare it. Win!
