As for the sandwiches I went to a local grocery store and
ordered pink bread cut lengthwise. You
might need to call around to order the bread as some stores don’t have it. We
have a Fortinoes in the area that does it or specialty bread stores will usually sell them as well. These sandwiches should be made a day before and refrigerated so they will stay together and are easier to cut. Once you have the bread cut all the
crust off.
Peanut Better Roll Ups
Once your bread has the crust cut off slather one side of the bread with peanut butter. Peal a banana and dip it in lemon juice. This is just to deter it from going brown. Place a full banana along the edge of your bread and roll it up. Saran wrap and refrigerate. On the day of the party use a sharp knife to cut in 1/2" rolls.
Cherry and Cream Cheese
The same thing
goes for the cream cheese and cherry sandwiches but I mix in a little cherry juice in the
cream cheese to spread a little easier. Line up your maraschino cherries and roll up. Saran wrap and refrigerate. On the day of the party use a sharp knife to cut in 1/2" rolls.
Checkerboard Sandwiches
You can make this with any filling you like egg salad, tuna, peanut butter etc. You will need 2 different colours of bread for this. Slather filling on cut in 3 lenghts. Use the filling to stick together so you have alternating colours. Once you have one row with 3 together slather the top with filling and repeat. You will have 3 layers. Saran wrap and refrigerate. On the day of the party use a sharp knife to cut in 1/2" rolls.
I hope I've explained this clearly. If you have any other questions just leave me a comment.
