There's nothing worse than a soggy sammy. The trick to keeping kids interested in eating their lunch (and stopping yourself getting bored making it) is mixing it up with variations on a theme that you know they already love.

So instead of a plain ham and cheese sandwich on sliced bread, try folding slices of ham and cheese into wedges of crunchy baguette or a soft bap. Save time and stress by using Mainland’s convenient sliced cheese – available in Edam, Tasty, Colby and Swiss to suit your family’s taste.
Head to mainland.co.nz for some quick and easy cheesy ideas.

The couple came to New Zealand in 2013 with their three children, to buy a fine dining restaurant. Shchetkova gave birth to twins a few months later.The Ukrainian citizens first came to New Zealand on a Long Term Business Visa after an eight-month wait for approval. Conditions of the LTBV were that they supply a detailed plan of the business they would buy and operate. It must be worth at least $500,000, must turn a profit and employ at least three fulltime workers. Shchetkova submitted a detailed business plan to take over a 140-seat French restaurant but due to the long wait for the visa, it had sold by the time she arrived in New Zealand. She instead bought La Vista, a 46-seat Spanish restaurant, for $700,000. It has since expanded and now seats 70. Shchetkova and her husband have worked without a day off for two years to make the business a success.They employ 26 staff, 17 of whom are on fulltime contracts. The business had about 12 when they took over. La Vista's turnover for the year ended 2018 was $1.6 million and is expected to reach $1.75m for the year ended 2019.
