Where did our Spring go? We woke up to a gloomy damp day, boo. The girls wanted hot lunches, but they didn't want the school lunch, so I got out their Thermoses. The boys opted for the school lunch, so I had a few extra minutes to add some cutesy touches to Sailor Boy's lunch :
He has a ham & cheese flatbread wrap atop a salad (with radish heart cutouts), some Gala apple wedges, carrots, & dressing for the salad. I used my alphabet picks to add a love note to his sandwich.
Sprout has hot leftover noodles in her Thermos. In her Bynto she has a Goodbyn dip cup filled with grated parmesan - she likes to sprinkle it on her noodles - and some Gala apple wedges, carrots, & parmesan garlic Triscuits.
Bella has potato soup in her Thermos, and sides of cucumbers, radishes, baby carrots, sunburst tomatoes, Triscuits & string cheese. Bella likes her string cheese to be very cold, she says it "strings better" that way, so I put some reusable ice cubes right next to it. Both girls have iced tea to drink.
Stuff used to make these lunches:
I am so with Bella on the string cheese thing - I don't like it if it's room temperature. Too bad my mom didn't know about reusable ice cubes 20 years ago!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you both! I like my cheese cold, or hot & melty, not room temperature :)
DeleteLove Sprout's all pink lunch! And it all looks so good!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I think she gabbed a lot at lunch because it was hardly touched - but she finished it after school :)
DeleteHow do you keep the apples from browning?
ReplyDeleteI use a product called Fruit Fresh, usually found with canning supplies (it's made by Ball) , and I wrote a post about other methods on the EasyLunchboxes blog
DeleteYummy lunches! I'm with Bella...string cheese is much better when it's very cold!
