If you are looking for ways to incorporate spinach into your kids lunchbox, this is a great recipe. It makes an excellent breakfast instead of the usual eggs and toast. Pair it  with soup or salad to make a complete meal.

I like making sandwiches for lunch when I have friends over. I usually make Couscous salad, Greek salad or Asian Slaw. I also like to make a hot soup to go along with it. I usually make Tamatar ka Shorba an Indianised version of tomato soup or Black Bean Soup.
