Kids Club Sandwiches Recipes

CLASSIC CLUB SANDWICH

Steps:

• Toast the bread in a toaster, or under a broiler on both sides. Cut the lettuce leaves in half crosswise and form into 8 neat stacks.
• To make a double-decker club: On a clean work surface, arrange 3 bread slices in a row. Spread 1 tablespoon mayonnaise over 1 side of each bread slice. Place a lettuce stack on top of the first bread slice, top with 2 tomato slices, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Place 2 slices bacon over the tomatoes (broken to fit neatly if necessary) and top with 1/8 of the turkey (without letting any hang over the sides). Season the turkey with salt and pepper, to taste. Repeat with the second bread slice. Carefully place the second layered bread slice on top of the first layered bread, turkey side-up. Cover with the third bread slice, mayonnaise side-down.
• Pin the sandwich's layers together by piercing them with 4 frill picks or cocktail swords through the top bread slice, in 4 places in a diamond-like pattern, all the way to the bottom bread slice. Repeat entire process with the remaining ingredients to form 3 more sandwiches.
• Using a serrated knife cut each sandwich, diagonally, into 4 triangular pieces (each piece should be secured in the center with a pick or sword). Serve with potato chips and pickles.

SUPER SANDWICHES FOR KID'S PARTIES

Steps:

• Generously butter the bread slices and arrange on your bench so that each sandwich has one slice white and one slice brown bread.
• Spread the mayonnaise on the white buttered bread making sure to get right to the edges of the slice so that the ends don't get dry.
• Place a slice of cheese over the mayonnaise.
• Spread ketchup thinly over the brown slice, again making sure you go to the edges and then cover with a slice of ham.
• Place the two pieces together, then press gently down on a cutting board and slice diagonally twice so that you have 4 triangular pieces.
• Continue with the other slices until you have 32 pieces which you arrange points facing up on a platter.
• Cover with cling film and chill for 2-3 hours before needed.
• Decorate the platter with chips scattered over if you like.

KIDS' CLUB SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium high and grill the bacon for 5 mins, turning once. Lightly toast the bread, then cut off the crusts.
• Mix the soft cheese with the grated carrot and spread over 6 slices of the toast. Top 3 of these with lettuce, cucumber and tomatoes, then a plain slice of toast.
• Put 2 rashers of bacon on top of each stack, then top the sandwiches with the rest of the cheese-spread toast, cheesy side down. Push a paper-topped (for safety) cocktail stick into each side of the sandwich, about 3cm in from each corner. Cut each sandwich into four triangles. Keep together and wrap in cling film until just before serving.
