Angry Bird Sandwiches

Mini bagels
slices of salami
slices of cheddar cheese
Fresh mozzarella
black olives
romaine lettuce, shredded

Cut salami to the size of the bagel and then cut a small oval off the bottom of one side. Place on the mini bagel. Use the salami scraps to fashion feathers and place under the slice of salami and sticking out of the top of the sandwich. A cheddar beak is added, and fresh mozzarella is cut into tiny rounds for the eyes. A single black olive slice is used for both the angry eyebrows and the pupils in the eyes. Add a bit of shredded “grass” and we’re good to pack in a lunch box or serve at the table.
