Sometimes you just need an easy lunch. Don't get me wrong I love me some Dino Nuggets, and while I know the kids will always eat them it feels good to make a lunch that's different, fun, creative and I know will fill up not just them but me as well!


Let's jump right into it because no one has time to read 50 paragraphs while the kids are hungry, and the baby is ready for a nap.


Prep time takes about 5 minutes, cooking time is between 10-15 minutes depending on what biscuits you use!

Ingredients:

 1.) 1 Can of Original OR Butter Biscuits; they can be either Croissants or 

       Roll-Up/Swirl Biscuits.

 2.) Shredded Cheese

 3.) Lunch Meat - Ham

*To spice it up, try substituting the ham for pepperoni and add a side of pizza sauce to dip it in! 


Directions:

 1.) Cook/Pre-heat according to instructions on can

 2.) Unroll choice of Biscuits and load up with the good stuff

 3.) Cook according to instructions on can

 4.) Enjoy!


*I'm Feeling Fancy Instructions:

 Melt Butter and add Italian Seasoning, or Fresh Parsley and chopped up Garlic,  then cover the top of your masterpiece with it before placing it in the oven. 


This is such an easy and delicious meal for when we have a busy day ahead of us. It's something that not only the kids will enjoy but my husband and I can also get behind. Great for parties or easy after school snacks, and something the kids can help make too!
