If you’re not home to make these tasty, veggie-filled treats after school, just bake up a batch ahead of time, let them cool, stack them in the fridge (wrapped in plastic), and your family can pop them in the microwave after school. OR: Make these in the morning, wrap them tightly in foil and they’ll still be warm for school lunch!
