I’m planning a family road trip this summer up the coast of California. With two preschoolers in tow, I know I will need to be prepared. I love to pack food for the road and one item I will be using is made by Pampered Chef and called Cut-N-Seal ($9). (Love it!) This is a must-have if your kids aren’t crust lovers or if you are tired of peanut butter and jelly dripping down into the grooves of your kid’s carseat buckle.
Here’s what you do: Take two slices of sandwich bread, push the center of one slice down to make an indent. Fill the indent with your choice of filling, then put the other piece on top. Place the Cut-N-Seal on the sandwich and push down so it “cuts” the bread then push the spring “button” on top so it “seals” the sandwich. Ta-da! That’s it. The kids love it because it’s fun and easy to hold. And there isn’t any bread sliding off the sandwich and onto the car floor.
Other handy road trip helpers from Pampered Chef include the Color Coated Santoku Knife (1059) is great to bring along because it has a cover and is ideal for easy apple sharing and of course the nice-size Insulated Tote (2137) will keep your items cold or hot (great for tailgating, too).
