French Toast Roll Ups

For kids, sugary snacks seem to be unavoidable. Whether it’s lunch time or any other time of the day, they tend to opt for the snacks rather having a proper meal.
If your kid is one snack lover with a sweet tooth and you are worried about his eating habits and health then don’t! Instead of saying “no”, prepare a home-made snack that is healthy for your child. Kids simply love to have different and yummy food in their lunch boxes everyday. So, taking French toast roll ups with their favourite filling as a lunch will not only excite them up but will also curb their sweet tooth and snack cravings.
These yummy and easy to make roll ups do not only look scrumptious to kids but they can also spice up your snack routine. The best thing about these roll ups is that they neither require much time nor much ingredients.
