May the 4th be With You

Last year Star Wars Day fell on a school day, so I made all the school age sproutlets themed lunches, but this year it's a Saturday, I don't need to pack school lunches. Instead, I packed one for Sailor Boy to take to work Monday:

May the 4th Be With You Lunch - Sarlacc Pit Bean Dip
I'm really pleased with how the refried bean dip Sarlacc pit turned out! The tentacles are shredded Monterey Jack cheese. So the bean dip could be taken out of the metal PlanetBox and microwaved, I packed it in a jumbo silicone muffin cup - they are the perfect height for the PlanetBox, the lid is flush with the rim of the cup when closed. Sailor Boy's going to love this lunch :)

The rest of his PlanetBox Launch contains:
  • A heart-shaped egg with a Stormtrooper cupcake topper
  • Salsa to go with the chips & bean dip
  • Blue corn & black bean garlic tortilla chips
  • Blueberries, some skewered on a lightsaber food pick
  • Princess Leia buns mini cinnamon buns, heheh
