Spinach Corn Cheese Sandwich | How to make Spinach Corn Cheese Sandwich at Home | With Detailed Stepwise Pictures | Quick and Healthy Lunch Box Recipe

Hi Supermoms,

Spinach and Corn combination can never go wrong. I have earlier shared Spinach and Corn Toasties recipe which is also very yummy. On my recent vacation, the 'not so little one', ordered this sandwich  twice and she liked it so much, that I had mentally noted down that I will make it soon for her tiffin box. Made it today and I was delighted to hear from that it tasted better than the 'resto'. 

Spinach Spread and freshly boiled sweet corn layered between bread slices. Simple, healthy snack for breakfast, tea time, picnics, travel or lunch box.

Chef Tips :

1. You can add fresh/dry seasoning of oregano, parsley etc., for flavour.

2. Do not add too much of mint or cilantro, else it will change the taste of the sandwich. 

3. You can add cucumber, onion  and tomato roundels instead of corn and cheese, if you are making for adults who avoid cheese. Just spread 1/2 teaspoon butter before applying the spinach spread.

4. Do not boil the spinach too much if you want to retain the vibrant colour. Washing the spinach in cold water  stops it from cooking further.

5. Whole Wheat Bread is more porous and soft. So do not apply too much of the spinach spread to avoid the bread getting soggy.

Happy Cooking !
