Potato Tuna Salad and Sushi Sandwich
In this recipe, potato salad and tuna salad are combined into one satisfying meal. They make a popular and quick-fix lunchbox salad which is a great way to relieve school lunch sandwich boredom and can be a great start to the week when fresh bread is not readily available. For the light eaters, serve with a wholemeal roll spread sparingly with polyunsaturated margarine or butter. To make a more creative lunchbox, serve with delicious pinwheel sandwiches. These sushi sandwiches look fancy, but are easy to make and fun to eat. The best part is all these can be made ahead of time.

- Starting at the side closest to you, tightly roll the bread up and press tightly to seal into a roll. Roll-up can be prepared ahead of time. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to cut into pinwheels to serve.
