Tips for Preparation
If you have a toddler helper, prepare all of the ingredients ahead of time. Toddlers have a short attention span, so I have everything ready before my toddler starts cooking.
- Eggs - Place eggs in boiling water for 15 minutes. Remove eggs to a bowl of ice water for 5 minutes or until completely cooled. Peel and dice eggs.
- Cucumber - Peel & dice cucumber. For your convenience, a how-to video is listed to the right. I completely remove the skin from the cucumber for toddler recipes.
- Mayo - Try putting the mayo in a zip lock baggy with one end snipped and let your toddler squeeze the mayo out...or they can spoon it from a cup.
- White Bread - Remove crusts of white bread using a pizza cutter. Super easy! Note: Save the crusts for homemade bread crumbs. Put them in a blender & then freeze in an airtight container.
All ingredients, including measurements, are below:

A fun moment in our video is when Julius accidentally splashes mustard in his hair. He is so upset, but the show must go on. LoL - When cooking with a toddler helper, or by yourself, it's ok if you make a mess. ;-)
