4.7 from 7 reviews

These Grilled Cheese Roll-Ups are a delightful and easy-to-make lunch idea perfect for toddlers. With just a few simple ingredients, these cheesy roll-ups are sure to be a hit with your little ones.

Ingredients

Scale

Bread:

  • 4 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or any bread your child enjoys)

Butter:

  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened

Cheese:

  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix of both)

Optional:

  • Seasonings (garlic powder, salt, or pepper to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bread Start by removing the crusts from the bread slices. For some toddlers, the crust can be a little too tough to chew, so removing them ensures a soft, easy-to-eat roll-up. Next, gently roll each slice of bread with a rolling pin or the palm of your hand to flatten them.
  2. Add the Cheese Spread a small amount of shredded cheese onto each slice of flattened bread. Be generous but not too thick, as the cheese will melt and spread when cooked. You can also sprinkle some seasoning on top for extra flavor.
  3. Roll Up the Bread Once the cheese is added, carefully roll up the bread tightly from one end to the other. This will form the perfect roll-up shape.
  4. Grill the Roll-Ups Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the softened butter. Once the butter has melted, add the roll-ups to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
  5. Serve and Enjoy Once your Grilled Cheese Roll-Ups are ready, remove them from the skillet and let them cool for a minute or two before serving them to your toddler. Slice them into bite-sized pieces and serve with a side of fruit, vegetables, or dipping sauces like ketchup or ranch.
