I feel that a lot of the pressure we put upon ourselves at dinner can be alleviated by getting as many veggies into the kids throughout the day as we can. That’s why these three veg lunchbox scrolls are a winner!
Make them in advance, whip them up in the morning or even serve them as a dinner side, they are super versatile, freezer friendly and quick to make. Having frozen puff pastry in the freezer means you are always only ever a few minutes away from these delicious scrolls being ready to go.
Choose whatever veggies are your kids’ favourites, I find the combination of corn, zucchini and carrot work really well as the flavours work together and blend well into the pizza sauce. So much so that Master 7 wasn’t 100% sure what was in the scrolls. That means they are perfect if you are trying to veggie smuggle.
