Introduction

This is a recipe that I make for my Day Care kddlets. It is fast and easy. Chopped onions are not a kid friendly food for most, so the granulated/powder version is substituted. I usually add a slice of REAL American Cheese Toddlers need the fat for their brain function. I also add fresh baby spinach on the sandwich and serve on 12 Grain bread (not included in calculations) top it with chopped fresh baby spinach and serve with grape tomatoes.
