Serves: 1

Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 1 stick celery
• ¼ small avocado
• 1 wholemeal or wholegrain roll*

Steps

1. Bring a saucepan of water to the boil. Place the egg into the boiling water carefully and cook for 10 minutes. Remove the egg and rinse under cold water until cool to touch. Peel the egg and set aside.
2. Dice celery stick by cutting it into small pieces. Set aside in a small bowl.
3. Transfer the boiled egg to a small bowl with the celery and add the avocado. Use a fork to mash the egg, avocado, and celery together.
4. Cut the bread roll in half.
5. Top the bottom half of the roll with the egg mix.
6. Add the remaining half of the roll to close.

*Tips

• You can swap the bread roll for bread slices or a wrap (wholemeal or wholegrain options if available). If your child will only eat white bread, try to choose a variety with added fibre.
• Option to add additional vegetables such as grated carrot.
• Make sure your eggs aren't fridge cold when you transfer to the boiling water. By having the eggs at room temperature, they will be less likely to crack.
• To avoid wasting the avocado, you could make enough sandwiches for the whole family.
