SECRET SANDWICH (LUNCH BOX SURPRISE)
For our 5 year olds lunch box for either snack time or lunch for his first year at kindergarten that are reasonably healthy but will bring a smile to his face when he finds them. Kids tire of the same old sandwich, so I came up with this as a new and fun way to make sure he doesn't skip his sandwich! I was surprised at how much lunch meat and cheese I was able to get in the muffin! If you child likes lettuce you could stuff some of that inside as well. You could actually fill the hole with just about any type of sandwich filling. :)

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Cut pizza dough into 12 portions. Roll into balls.
- Boil water and add baking soda.
- NOTE: Make sure your pot is narrow enough that the water level covers the dough balls and make sure there's enough room left in the pot that it won't boil over when the baking soda is added.
- Place dough balls in the pot, boiling for 20-30 seconds in batches.
- Line a 10" (25 cm) skillet with the dough balls, making a ring along the outside edge.
- Scramble the egg and brush the dough balls with egg wash. Top with salt, to taste.
- Par-bake the dough for 15 minutes.
- While the dough is baking, combine the cream cheese, 1½ cups (150 g) of cheddar, sour cream, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder until smooth.
- Fill the center of the dip ring with the cheese dip. Top the dip and the dough balls with the remaining cheddar.
- Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes (or until the pretzel balls have browned and the dip has fully melted).
- Allow to cool before serving.
- Enjoy!

SNACK STACKERS (LUNCH BOX SURPRISE)
Nothing fancy here.... Our 5 year old loves those Snackables, so I make my own rendition for his snack time at kindergarten. I like it better because I get to choose healthier options like real cheese and organic meats. I use the low sodium crackers or the whole wheat ones.
