Fun, easy Butterfly lunch for school

School has started.  Are you ready for the lunch rush every morning?

You will need: 2-3 slices of bread, 1 large piece of lettuce, 3 slices lunch meat, part of 1 tomato, 1 olive, 2 tooth picks, 1 cheese slice, a few broccoli spears, ranch dressing. You will also need a cookie cutter and Ranch dressing.


Using the cookie cutter, cut 6 slices of meat, 1 cheese, 1 lettuce, and 2-3 slices of bread into the butterfly shape.



 Assemble the sandwich. bread, 3 slices of meat, lettuce, 3 slices of meat, bread, and cheese on top.  Out of the tomato, cut the middle section of the butterfly and lay on top of cheese.  Add the olive for the head and use the toothpicks to secure.



Place the broccoli on the bottom of the plate as trees.  Make clouds out of ranch dressing for the clouds.




Place assembled butterfly sandwich on plate and enjoy!

When taking to school, wrap sandwich in plastic wrap. Use a ziplock baggie for the broccoli and another one for the ranch. I added applesauce and pudding for my daughter.  Don't forget a spoon and a drink.
