A Whale of a Lunch and crowns for a princess

Every day is beach themed when you live in Florida.  My kids love checking out the local aquarium, seeing the fostered sea turtle and running around chasing seagulls in the sand.  Miss A’s preschool does a lot of Under the Sea themed crafts and lessons.  We never see whales so I decided to put a few in the lunch.

Both sandwiches are whole wheat bread.  The bottom whale is the bread heel.  They’re in an ocean of blueberries with fruit leather fish.  In the top of her Easy Lunchboxes are strawberry hearts and watermelon fish.

Bentoriffic hearts and crowns lunch

Miss G has a Lunch Punch crown on whole wheat filled with Justin’s Maple Almond Butter and jam.  I took out the mini heart and filled the hole with blueberries in her Easy Lunchboxes container.  She also has strawberry hearts, and a watermelon crown and castle in her lunch today.

Today’s snack is packed in her LunchBots Trio container with an apple cinnamon heart muffin, snow peas, carrots, popcorn and cashews.

Waffle flowers and a smiley face

I promise I’ve been feeding my kids even though I haven’t posted in a few days.  Sometimes life gets in the way of blogging.  Van’s mini waffles saved the day this week.  I toast them & make mini sandwiches out of them.   Miss G (5 years old) has 3 waffle flower sandwiches.  Hers are Continue Reading »

Penne pasta with edamame and rainbow fruit

Every mom has their backup meals, and this is one of mine.  I didn’t get much sleep last night.  I had big plans for lunch, and they didn’t happen. This pasta takes about 10 minutes from the time the water is boiling until it hits the lunchbox.  I use a 365 (Whole Foods) brand of Continue Reading »
