Vegetable Cheese Roti roll | Quick meal | Vegetable cheese tortillas | Peanut butter rolls | Lunch box recipe

What do you do when you are crazy hungry but have almost no time to whip up something? What happens when you have to have your breakfast on the go? Add to this the fact that you want to eat healthy yet craving for something yummy! For those of you who have such questions (just like me), I have found an answer!!

The quickest, healthiest roll that can act as breakfast, lunch, snack or even light dinner!! Oh and not to mention tastiest!! You can pack it in the lunch box of your little one and rest assured that it will come back empty!!

These rolls are complete food with cereal, dairy protein and veggeis! Add to it goodness of peanut butter, freshness of herby green chutney or tanginess of tomato ketchup and you have got a winning combination on your hand. 

The great part about these rolls is that they are amazingly flexible. You can make them with rotis (Indian flatbread) or use ready made tortillas. You can make a vegan version of it by replacing cheese with tofu!! If you have nut allergy then use regular butter or other vegan butter!!

Check out the beauties..

1) On your work surface put your roti/ tortilla.

2) Spread peanut butter on that.

Farmhouse Club Sandwich

I posted this recipe in TGND's post on sandwiches.

As i said there, we had it at the Ice station in hyderabad and we loved it. They have a kind of open kitchen, so could see the sandwich being assembled and realized that it's very easy to make, so made it at home and it was as good as they come :)

Try it out, it's easy to make and tastes great :)

Also, you get a chance to sneak in capsicum and this is very healthy, complete meal with dairy protien (Cheese), Carbs (Bread and potato) and veggies (tomatoes, capsicum, corriander)...

Farmhouse Club Sandwich

 Ingredients: (To make 4 Sandwiches)

12 Bread Slices (I use brown bread, you can use whichever bread you like)

3 Medium sized boiled potatos, peeled and cut into small pieces

3 Medium sized Onions (Finely cut or cut or cut in slices, whatever you prefer. i prefer finely cut)

3 Medium sized tomatoes (again i prefer finely cut, you can do slices if you want)

1 Big (Or 2 small) capsicum (My choice Finely cut or cut, but slices also tastes good)

4 Cheese Cubes, grated

Green Chutney

Butter

Salt

Black Pepper

Chaat Masala (Optional)

Method:

1) Take a slice of bread, apply butter and chutney on it. then put tomato, onion and capsicum and cheese on that bread slice. Sprinkle Salt, Black Pepper and Chaat Masala on it.

2) Take another slice of bread, apply butter and chutney on both the sides of the slice and cover the 1st bread slice with this one.

3) Now on the 2nd bread slice, put potatoes, tomatoes, onions and grated cheese. Sprinkle Salt, Black Pepper and Chaat Masala on it.

 Bread Slice with the stuffing

4) Take another bread slice, apply butter and chutney on this one as well and cover the sandwich.

5) Toast it in OTG or tawa or sandwich maker, a club sandwich is ready in jiffy.

You can serve it with Potato chips and Ketchup 

Notes:

1) If you are watching weight then you can skip butter and Cheese, i won't say it tastes equally good, but nevertheless, it tastes good...

2) I use food processor to finely cut Onions, Tomatoes and Capsicum.

3) To make it healthier, you can use the multi-grain bread.
