Smiley Chicken Sandwich(with apples & carrots)

Breakfast fuels us for the day. It is always said to have breakfast like a king, lunch like a queen and dine like a pauper, whereas most of us do just the opposite. Most of us makes this mistake to skip breakfast hoping to lose weight; whereas research confirms that people who eat breakfast are the most successful at weight control. If we don't refuel at breakfast and break the overnight fast, we challenge the body as the brain searches for the fuel.

It's a high-time effort to pack kids' snack box with their favourite breakfast as there is so little time in the morning. Planning is  crucial in such situations. All kids have different tastes ,which varies more often. When Noora (my doter) wants all chocolaty , Razin, my son, prefers cheesy.. But when coming to chicken, they both love it. So including chicken in their breakfast menu is the smartest choice that I make.They likes to be surprised when they open their box and a smiley sandwich can make them happy.
