Lunch For Five!

Hey there. Hope you had a fabulous holiday weekend. We hung out by the pool and grilled out all weekend long. The kiddos are still recovering from all the swimming and mom is trying to pull the house back together after a long weekend of doing almost nothing. Ha ha! We all need a break sometimes! The kids went back to school yesterday and I can tell they are so ready for summer vacation. Am I ready? Well, heck no! I have mixed feeling about summer. I have what you would call a love hate relationship with it. I love the aspect of not being on a schedule or tied down to anything. But I also hate the fact that this too small house is overflowing with people. Now don't get me wrong I love the kids being here, Why else would I have had them? But when the whining starts I begin to count down the days until the new school year begins.  Now that I have all that off my chest lets check out todays lunch.

Today I packed five lunches. In this first picture I packed flatbread ham and swiss sandwiches for three. They are all tailored to suit each persons taste.

 
The two youngest girls wanted leftover hot dogs from the grill so that is what they got. Waste not want not I say. Each lunch has fruits and veggies of their choice. The boy wanted to buy lunch today so he has a school lunch today.
These super simple meals took little time to throw together. Have a great day and I will see you around real soon!

DIY Lunchables!

Hey there! I know I have been MIA lately with my post but we have been super busy. The kids are still packing but lunches have not been as cute as normal. We packed DIY Lunchables this week. A kiddo favorite!



All the kids took pretty much the same lunchable. The veggies and fruit are different and suited to each kid.

 
They really enjoy these lunches. They take just a little time to make so they are a favorite of mine also. Anything to save time is a plus in my book.

Spaghetti, Sandwiches and Salad!

Last night I made seven lunches for my family in about thirty minutes. I made spaghetti  for the boy.


                                                   He also took grapes and pretzels.

I made fun sandwiches for the girls. These were so easy to make and took little time.

 
All four girls had ham sandwiches and lots of yummy veggies and fruit.
 
I made this salad for my sisters lunch.
 
 
 
Isn't it cute! What could be easier than a salad with all the fixings on the side.
I also made my mom a lunch. She took a ham sandwich and pretzels.
 
Lunch doesn't have to be time consuming to be cute and nutritious.
