Freezable sandwiches
Before you start, here are a few simple rules to get the best out of your sandwiches.
Avoid soggy sandwiches
Spread butter on the bread as it helps stop the bread from going soggy. Always place the wettest ingredients in the centre of sandwich fillings.
Wrap & freeze
Cut sandwiches in half then wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Place in the freezer. Keep sandwiches in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Thaw & pack
Place sandwiches in the fridge the night before to thaw. Pack in a lunch box with a freezer brick to keep the sandwich at the right temperature.
