FREEZE YOUR SANDWICH

Many sandwiches can be safely frozen for use the next day.  Here are some tips:

bulletThe spread you use should not only freeze well but once it starts to defrost it should not turn bad.  Some suggested spreads can be found at PACKING A LUNCH.  If you want to use a spread that will not freeze well, put it in a separate container (or zip lock), refrigerate & you can spread it when you are ready to eat the sandwich.  Apply the spread of choice to your bread.
bulletAdd the filling to one slice of the bread.
bulletTop with the second slice of bread.
bulletWrap well in freezer paper or a moisture-proof paper, mark it, freeze it.
bulletPrepare the vegetables (lettuce, tomato, pickle, etc) & put in a zip lock type bag & refrigerate it overnight.
bulletIn the morning you can place the frozen  sandwich & the bag of vegetables in the lunch box.  It should take from 3 to 3 1/2 hours to thaw, meanwhile your lunch box stays somewhat cool.
bulletBe careful what you put on the bread before freezing.

It's not a bad idea to send a box of juice with the lunch.  Just freeze it also.  This too should be wrapped in moister-proof paper to keep the lunch box dry.
