With the brand new reimagining of Pete’s Dragon coming out soon and back-to-school season around the corner, we thought this would be the perfect time to introduce this super cute Dragon Tail flat-bread sandwiches recipe for kids! I’m always looking for fun new lunchbox ideas for my son. It has to get boring, eating the same old sandwich every day. I’m also always trying to find new ways to get him to try different veggies. This recipe is filled with things that are good for him, yet it’s so cute that he’s not going to mind eating healthier. Best of all, it’s really easy to make for those rushed mornings. You could even make it the night before and keep it in the fridge! Let’s check out how to make this Pete’s Dragon inspired recipe for kids.

Isn’t it adorable? Such an easy recipes for kids, even they can help make it. If your children don’t like ham or turkey, you can really go with any cold cuts here. The mustard is also just a suggestion. Feel free to use Mayo or anything else your kids like. While you can skip the condiments altogether, they do help hold everything in place. Kind of like glue!
