Ingredients
- 2 lices white bread
- 2 lices white American cheese
- 1 cup strawberries plus extra for food art
- 4 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 red apple sliced
- 1 cup Peace, Love & Happiness Pasta cooked
- 1 nack bag Little Hearts Cookies.
- 2 Candy eyes optional
- 1-2 drops Natural food coloring optional, if not using natural strawberry food coloring
Instructions
- Start by making the red strawberry food coloring if using; put about a cup of strawberries in a small saucepan with 1/2 cup of water, cook until it’s reduced down to about a quarter of a cup, stirring occasionally. Place the mixture into a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
- Bring pasta to boil and cook according to package directions.
- Using the heart cut-outs, make cut-out 2 hearts from the bread slices and American cheese slices. Set aside and melt the butter. Combine the melted butter with a few spoons of the strawberry food coloring or 3-4 drops of natural red food coloring drops. Mix well, until desired color preference.
- Brush about 1 tablespoon of the red butter on each slice of bread. Heat-up some of the red butter on low and place the bread onto the skillet, pushing down to toast the bread. Place the heart-shaped cheese slices on top, and then add on top the other slice of bread. Continue cooking until the bread is a rich reddish brown, flipping once and press down lightly to help the bread stick to the cheese. **You can use a lid to cover for a few seconds to make the cheese melt faster without burning the bread**
- After cooling, place sandwich into the main compartment of the lunchbox. Cut-out heart shaped apples and strawberries; place around the sandwich. Add two toothpicks to each side and place a heart at the end of each to be the heart’s arms. Place candy eyes on top, pushing down to stick and had a thin slice of apple to form the heart’s smile.
- In one side compartment place a good amount of the cooked pasta, add in a small amount of the strawberry food coloring butter and mix well to coat.
- In the other side compartment place the Little Hearts Cookies or your little one’s favorite snack. You could even place extra heart shaped apples or strawberries in the box.
