I always try to think of the little things that make a meal special. Take this lunchbox, for instance. It’s just a plain old turkey and cheese sandwich, like you might find on any cafeteria line. Even with some lettuce and pickles to perk up the flavor and texture, it’s still nothing anyone’s going to get excited about finding in their lunchbox.
But put those simple sandwich fillings on a couple of mini croissants, and the whole picture changes. This isn’t an ordinary sandwich anymore; it’s a special gourmet experience. And all you had to do was change the bread! I hope you love this Mini Croissant Sandwich Lunchbox Idea as much as we do!
