Introduction: Trafic Light Bread! - Nutritious and Delicious

About: I'm a mom of 4 and I love to craft! Anything and Everything interests me and i love to create in the process of learning.

This bread in filled with delicious nutritious goodness! Your kid will be having your veggies and they wouldn't even know it!

First you need to make your basic bread dough..

This is my favorite recipe -
1 lb flour
2oz  warm milk
2oz  warm water
2 tbs sugar
2 tsp yeast
1 tbs salt

Step 1:

Ingredients :-
1lb flour
2 tsp yeast
2oz warm milk
2oz water
2oz butter
2 tbs sugar
1 tsp salt
1 egg beaten

Method -
mix yeast 2 tbs of sugar and 2 tbs of warm milk...keep to ferment...meanwhile
Sieve flour into a bowl add beaten egg , butter, salt and mix well
Check if the yeast has fermented...if yes add this to the flour mixture and gradually add the water and now cooled milk. knead to a soft dough
Place in greased bowl and turn the dough over so it's coated totally with grease and cover the bowl with a damp cloth

Step 2: The Filling

I chose filling with it's natural color except for the fish.
Boil Carrot and beetroot with salt and pepper and  cream each separately with a butter.
For the fish..cook with salt and pepper and add green coloring and cream with butter.

Step 3: Making Your Light!

Now roll the dough flat
fold over the edges to make a wall
then roll 2 long strips and place in the center to gap up the dough
place your filling according to the colors of the traffic. cover with another layer of dough
keep for a while and then bake

I made pillows too
cut squares...place the filling on one square and cover with another square...repeat till you have put all 3 fillings
press down the sides with a fork
now bake.

Step 4: What You Should Not Do!

What you should not do is leave the oven unattended! my traffic lights came okay...but after i put my second dish out...my pillows...i had to run for a 2 year old's potty training emergency! Hence the ruined pillow! sorry folks!
