These cute lunches (and I use that term very loosely!) are from the very long week after my due date. Nothing too fabulous, but it's something to post! Hopefully a few of you have found time to make cute lunches - holiday themes are so easy and fun! I can't wait to make a few little turkey things before Thursday!
PIP your cute lunches here, too, so I don't feel like a ridiculous AW!
A super easy muffin tin lunch. Babybel cheese, leftover chicken, strawberries, grapes, yogurt and leftover cauliflower/bacon. Finding the star-shaped sprinkles in my cluttered collection was the hardest part! My DD noticed that the foods were red, white and blue, so we threw in a patriotic napkin, too.
Not cute, but pretty colorful! Dehydrated strawberries, cucumbers, pretzels, grapes, carrots and leftover quiche. A few bear picks turned this into a bear lunch.
This was from the beginning of the week and included the last piece of Halloween candy. A Hello Kitty sandwich (cookie cutter from Party City) is surrounded by dehydrated strawberries with carrots, a baby apple and dried apricots.
PIP your child's cute lunch here!
Re: *Cute lunch check-in*
I go back to work this week so I'm going to have to start packing lunches 3 days a week for D. (he goes to a babysitter 3 days a week...the other 2 days my MIL watches the kids and she'll make him lunch) Looking forward to it.
I don't have a pic of it but you will love this story. Just before Halloween, D had a class trip to the pumpkin farm. I was one of the chaperones. I did a homemade lunchable type thing for him...ham and turkey rolled up and cut into slices, crackers, and cheese. I used 1 piece of yellow cheese and 1 piece of white cheese. I used a cookie cutter to make them pumpkin shaped. Then I stacked them on top of each other and used a toothpick to cut out a jack o lantern face. Punched out the shapes and stuck the white pieces in the holes of the yellow cheese and vice versa. Looked really cute and he loved it.
Best part was when his teacher saw it. She asked me where did I find cheese shapes like that! LOL!!!!!!
