    This Cheese Pav bhaji Sandwich is a convenient and kid friendly way to enjoy a traditional dish.

    Pav Bhaji Sandwich I can't believe it's November already -- only two more months and we will be starting a new year. This year just flew right by and it's holiday season already. We are starting this month's edition of blogging marathon and my theme for the first week is "Make Takeout at Home'. For the first day I have this Cheese Pav Bhaji sandwich.Pav Bhaji SandwichPav bhaji is probably the most popular Indian takeout dish that is widely made at home. Since I already posted pav bhaji recipe on my blog, I was wondering what else I can make this week. Then I saw my son eating his pav bhaji as a sandwich and that gave me the idea to make this Cheese Pav bhaji sandwich.Pav Bhaji SandwichThis is a much easy and convenient way to enjoy pav bhaji especially for kids. Makes it portable and perfect to pack for lunches too. I added some green chutney to the buns to add some kick to the sandwich. A little bit of tomato ketchup adds an extra layer of tanginess. Make this next time for your kids and I am sure they will enjoy it.Pav Bhaji Sandwich

      This is such a cool idea. Always end up using leftover pav bhaji for dosa. Got to try this for sure.

      Even my boys love to eat the pav bhaji as a sandwich. In fact they have been bugging me to make it for school, but I worry that it might become very soggy. Love the clicks!

      My older one always eats it as a sandwich barring the cheese. Maybe I should give her this idea now 🙂
