BUSY PARENT HACK: FREEZE SANDWICHES IN ADVANCE<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Freezing sandwiches is an absolute life-saver when you’re a busy parent. There’s nothing worse than racing around in the morning trying to get everyone ready & you’ve still got to pack lunches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"Lunch<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Buy your bread on the same day you plan to freeze it, this will ensure your sandwich has the best chance of thawing to perfection. It is also important to note that brown bread & wholegrain bread freeze best. Wraps are not a great option for freezing, so save those for the days you’re planning on making lunches the night before.

Tips On Making The Best Freezable Sandwich<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Avoid fillings that are heavily water-based. Things like cucumber, lettuce & tomato don’t thaw very well & will likely make your sandwiches a bit soggy. You need to wrap them tightly. Cling wrap is definitely the best option as you should avoid any possibility that air can get into your sandwich & make it dry & stale.<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When you remove your sandwich from the freezer, remove your plastic wrap & place the sandwich in your kid’s lunch box as pictured below. For those who want to help the environment, you can save your plastic wrap & use it for your next lot of sandwich prep. When you pop your sandwiches in the freezer, be sure to put them in a place where they can sit flat to maintain their shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally… Removing the sandwiches from the freezer the night before guarantees the sandwiches will be thawed in time for them to be eaten at school or work.
