The other day I sent my daughter to school with one of her favorite’s – The Tuna Boat Sandwich, lol. It’s super cute, totally fun, and according to my daughter all the kids loved it. Between you and I this is the very first time I’ve sent the Tuna Boat Sandwich to school because it’s normally a summer sandwich due to its messy status lol.

You’ll need

Thank you for sharing that! Will have to try this!
Thank you for sharing and this sounds like something Chris would love.
We are always looking for different ways to entertain the grand kids at lunchtime!
What a lovely idea! I’d definitely be waiting for lunch time more with this decoration.
I can see why it would be a big hit at school. Very fun.

i love the idea this would defintley make the child interested to eat it this is a cute idea
This is such a cute idea. I am sure all the kids loved this. Thank you so much for sharing
LOL, that is so cute! I think I would feel bad eating the fishes :) Love this.
I love tuna salad. I would worry about letting a sandwich with mayo sit, unless using an insulated lunch bag, of course. That’s cute the way you put the tuna boat together.
What a lovely idea! I know that kids are more likely to eat food that looks like fun :)
YES, that’s what I have learned about my kids… If it is fun, they will eat it lol.. Veggies and all
