# Let's start with The Kids #
Some really simple spreads to use are basically whatever they have in their school lunches. I have found in the past that most kids eat on the run anyway, so sitting them down to a Gourmet sandwich feast is pretty useless. Spread any of these generously on lightly buttered and sliced freshly baked bread or fresh crunchy bread rolls....

Good old jam spread...homemade or your kid's favorite (I love "Jammies")Vegemite spreadPeanut Butter...Crunchy or SmoothShaved Chicken LoafSliced Meat selection....Ham, Salami etc what do they like?Nutella spreadCheese, slices or shredded, goes well with VegemiteHundreds and Thousands (Sprinkles), the littlies love these.
# For the Kids who do like to try different things, then may I make a few suggestions .... Mashed hard boiled egg and lettuce, you could also add some shredded or shaved cheese.Cottage cheese with Dried fruit eg raisins/sultanas or apricotsCreamed cheese with sun dried tomatoes and a slice of selected meat/chicken


# For The Grown-Ups--------Sandwich Fillings #
The secret to the filling in my great Cold Sandwich Recipes is the creaminess. You can achieve this by using sour Cream, yogurt, mayonnaise, cottage cheese or even cream itself. Don't be frightened to experiment with different textures.... My favourite has always been sour cream for no other reason than personal choice and the flavor doesn't seem to compromise with the other ingredients. Have a browse through these Cold Sandwich Recipes for ideas that you think your family and friends will enjoy.
 Egg Mayonnaise Sandwich Recipe
Ingredients: Slices of freshly baked bread....can use white, wholemeal or your favourite grain/Rye etcBoiled EggsMayonnaise (could use Sour Cream)Chopped fresh Chives (Can use Spring Onions)Seasoning...to personal tasteFresh Lettuce leaves to serveDepending on the number that you are serving I suggest 1 egg per person....I always try a little taste test as I make this up, try not to over season and keep as moist as possible without becoming sloppy.Chop the eggs.Add the Mayonnaise, the chopped chives and the seasoning....mix through thoroughly and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or cooler, ready to serve at the picnic.At the picnic spread the sliced Bread with a little butter or margarine if you want to, a small lettuce leaf and add lavish amounts of the mix, another one of my favourite Cold Sandwich Recipes....Yummy! Suggested Tip Add cooked and shredded chicken, cooked bacon or even tuna chunks to the mixture for different fillings.
 Cheese & Onion Mix Sandwich Recipe 2 Slices of your Favourite BreadCheddar CheeseOnionChivesMayonnaiseThe quantities to use in this Cold Sandwich Recipes will depend on the number of people that you are serving.....Grate a pile of cheddar cheese into a mixing bowl or dish.Finely chop the onion and add to the mixing bowl. Add a large spoonful of mayonnaise into the mixing bowl making sure that the cheese and onion are well mixed, keep the mix from getting too sloppy though...add more cheese if you need to.Add a small amount of chopped chives into the mix and store, cool, ready to use at your picnic. Suggested TipChop up some sardines and add to mix or use tinned salmon chunks for a different flavour.
