New School year is almost here and summer is coming to an end with fall knocking on the door. The easiest recipe that came to my mind was some sandwich filling that can be made ahead and refrigerated for quick fix lunch box recipe.

Though my preschooler is not so fond of sandwiches but this Grilled Cabbage Ricotta Sandwich is her preferred sandwich for lunch time. It just takes few simple steps and only 15 minutes to cook the stuffing and grill it in a sandwich as and when desired. For me I love sandwiches for my lunch and sometimes for my dinner too.

I usually make the stuffing in bulk and refrigerate for 4-5 days and whenever I am short of time I just quickly fix Grilled Cabbage Ricotta Sandwich along with a side of salad.  For the stuffing I just sauté green and purple cabbage in a pan and toss in lots of ricotta cheese along with some basic seasonings. The flavor of ricotta cheese just adds so much deliciousness to the sandwich along with so much health.

Ricotta cheese – it’s an Italian whey cheese made from sheep milk. This cheese contributes a lot to the energy required by our body due to its carbohydrate and protein content. It’s a great source of vitamin B12 and many minerals. Along with lots of calcium content ricotta cheese has good amount of omega-3 fatty acids. In totality this cheese is super delicious and healthy and my cheese loving family’s favorite.

    I would never have thought of grilling cabbage, let alone purple cabbage. Like how it’s combined with the cheese for extra oomph!

    Gunjan,

    Can I get all your recipes in an ebook? Can you package it all up and send it my way? This is something my husband would totally go for.
    Thanks for sharing!
