Love Bug Sandwiches
These fun and easy Love Bug Valentines sandwiches are perfect for a Valentines themed lunch box, fun Valentines meal or party food for kids!
Servings: 1 sandwich
Ingredients
- 2 pieces wholemeal bread
- butter or spread
- 1 slice of ham or sandwich filling of your choice
- 1 slice cheese
- 2 edible candy eyeballs
Instructions
- Start by cutting two circles from the bread, using your largest round cookie cutter that will fit on the bread slice. Spread with butter or spread.
- If using ham or a similar filling, cut a round slice to go in the sandwich. Cutting the pieces separately like this before assembling the sandwich will make the whole thing much neater with cleaner edges.
- Put the pieces together to form a round sandwich, then place to one side.
- Using the same cookie cutter that you used for the sandwich, cut a circle from the cheese.
- Using a smaller cookie cutter, cut out a piece of the circle for the head. Cut a tall, thin slice from the circle to divide it into two 'wings'.
- Using a mini bento cutter, cut heart shaped 'spots' into the wings, as symmetrical as possible. Carefully lift the cheese and place on top of the sandwich.
- Finish your love bug off with two candy eyeballs. You can 'glue' these on with cream cheese and mayo if wanted to keep them in place.
- Pop in a lunch box or serve immediately.
