About a year ago several of my blogger friends were talking about these containers made by Sistema. Everything they posted looked great in them so when I found them at Marshalls I bought some. I have been adding to them ever since. You can find them at Target and on Amazon also. These containers come in all kinds of shapes and sizes. You can find a perfect size Sistema container for anything! Here are some examples of how I use my Sistema containers.
As you can see these are awesome containers! In the next two pictures I show you what I packed in each container.
I have everything from a simple orange for snack to a easy lunch shown here.
I even used the divided container above to hold pre-cut apple slices in the fridge. (I add pineapple juice to the apple slices and toss in a bowl until coated to keep them from browning) My two youngest daughters snagged the sandwiches and veggie chips for lunch. They added some apple slices and cookies to complete lunch.
I use these containers almost everyday. I fill several of them with snack items and keep them in a basket for my kids to grab for school. I keep the dip containers filled with peanut butter for apple dipping and pretzels. You can pack anything you want in these. Below I have some links to some of the boxes on Amazon. Just click on the picture.

Such a great idea to coat the apple slices in pineapple juice - I've always used a bit of lemon juice, but pineapple would be so much tastier!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jennifer. I tried lemon juice and the kids didn't like it so when I saw you could use pineapple juice I gave it a try. They love it. It doesn't leave a funny or sour taste in your mouth either. You can barely tell it's there. I buy the six pack of little cans so I don't waste any. Each can is good for the whole week.
