The kids love egg and cheese and I am always trying to come up with handy little things to put in their lunch boxes, so they don’t have the same boring ole stuff every day. I had an idea in my head for these for a while and finally got round to making them and it totally worked, my entire family cleared their plates, while muttering all kinds of deliciousness and then demanded I make more, I take that as a good sign.
