CALIFORNIA ROLLWICH FOR KIDS

California Rollwich for Kids image

I've developed this 'rollwich' for my two-year-old grandson Chase. He loves avocados so it'll make it easier to sneak in veggies. For adult tastebuds, I'd add onions and jalapeno peppers to the avocados.

VEGETABLE SOUP WITH EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) DUMPLINGS

Vegetable Soup With Eggplant (Aubergine) Dumplings image

I have a 10 year old grandson who would rather eat soup for dinner then anything else.. AND it doesn't matter what kind of soup. So I get to use him as a taster and he knows the star system. He said this was a keeper for sure. You are welcome to use more garlic or spice depending on your taste, but this way is good. One good size eggplant should cover both the soup and the dumplings. Time does not include draining time for eggplant.

Dorito Sandwich (for kids) image

Sounds gross, and probably is. A friend of mine (yes, an adult)has been eating this since she was little and apparently still eats it. I was so intrigued by the odd-ballness of this sandwich that I thought I should post it.

COPYCAT JOHN ALDEN ROLLWICH

Copycat John Alden Rollwich image

If you've ever been to Cape Cod, you've almost certainly either seen or eaten at one of the many Box Lunch franchises in the area. This is my recreation of one of their famous "Rollwiches", scaled down to fit my smaller appetite. Feel free to make this in a larger tortilla and increase the other ingredients if you desire. If you add some slices of swiss cheese, this becomes a Priscilla Alden!

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 flour tortilla (soft taco size, about 7.5 inches)
2 teaspoons mayonnaise or 2 teaspoons light mayonnaise
1 1/2-2 tablespoons jellied cranberry sauce
2 ounces thinly sliced turkey (enough for a couple of thin layers)
romaine lettuce (I also enjoy using baby spinach, although that's not true to the original)
3 slices tomatoes

Steps:

Spread the mayonnaise on the tortilla, making sure to leave at least 1/2 inch around the outside.
Glop on a thin layer of cranberry sauce, but enough that it's fully covered. If you mash the cranberry sauce with a fork it seems to spread more easily.
Add the turkey and a thin layer of lettuce (or spinach).
Place the 3 tomato slices in a line down the center of the tortilla.
Make sure you don't fill the tortilla too full or get too close to the edge, or it won't wrap properly!
Carefully roll the tortilla into a wrap. Cut into two pieces, if desired.
Dig in and enjoy a taste of New England!
