Everday Bentos!

Today I made several different themed bentos. Each child got a very different looking lunch using many of the same ingredients. These are so cute! I used our new Goodbyn bento boxes that we got from Target. I also used our Lunchbots stainless steel lunch boxes.

This is lunch for the middle girl. She has a ham sandwich, grapes, carrots and cucumbers. She also has Annie's cheese crackers, a Cascadian Farm granola bar and in the little cup sunflower seeds.

This is lunch for the boy. He has pretzels and peanut butter(not shown) for dipping, apple Newton's, cashews, trail mix and sunflower seeds. He also has grapes and a clementine orange.

This is lunch for the youngest girl. She has two mini dachshund sandwiches with Nutella, a baby bell cheese, cashews, cucumbers, carrots and grapes. She also has Popchips.

 

This is lunch for the oldest. She has a sheep shaped ham sandwich, peppers, oranges, grapes and sugar snap peas. She also has Popchips and sunflower seeds.

Vegatarian Meals For The Girls!

Hello there! Today is Meatless Monday. The girls took a vegetarian meal today and I must say it looks delicious. The oldest had been requesting an apple sammie and this was the perfect opportunity to make her one. So here are todays meat free lunches.

 

The two younger girls had Apple slices, grapes, carrot sticks, wheat thin crackers, pretzels and peanut butter for dipping. My kids really like foods that can be dipped. This meal was perfect for a Meatless Monday and dip it theme. They are getting their proteins from the all natural peanut butter and have three veggie/fruit options.

Next we have the oldest. Like I said before she had been requesting an apple sammie and was very excited when she found out that was in her lunch for today! She has the apple sammie with peanut butter, carrot sticks, grapes, apple cinnamon rice cakes and pretzels.

To make an apple sammie you just cut the apples across into thick slices then make a hole in the middle. I used a mini acorn cookie cutter for this one. Staying with the fall theme I added some of my handmade food picks.

The boy did not take a vegetarian meal but it was still a yummy lunch! Have a great Monday!
