Sometimes it’s just fun to treat the little ones with surprises at the table.

My sons’ favorite surprise was so simple. I would cook hamburger patties and put ‘faces’ on them with cheese, olives and tomato.

Hamburger Surprises

  • Ground Beef
  • Shredded Mozzarella
  • Shredded Cheddar
  • Black olives, slicked
  • 1 slice of tomato cut cross wise

Make hamburger patties, cook till done. Lower heat and keep in pan. Make ‘faces’ on patties by sprinkling half the pattie with cheddar (hair) and half the patty with mozzarella (face). Place olives for eyes. For mouths, take edge of tomato slice, with no seeds, and cut a small piece for the smiling mouth. Put lid on pan to keep heat in. Let it stand covered for two minutes and then check to see if cheese has melted. Once it’s all melted, it’s time to serve.

Serve with their favorite condiment and see happy faces all around the table!

  1. Cute sandwiches! I know my kids wouldn’t fall for the olives, though! ;)

    My youngest always makes smiley faces with his ketchup, but this is totally adorable.

    Maybe you could substitute something other than olives? Something your kids would like for eyes?

    Yes, catchup works great for the face too, I’ll have to try that next time.
