Halloween Stromboli Lunch

Halloween is only 8 days away (my kids have been reminding me about 462 times a day) and it's time for some Halloween themed lunches in my house.

We love our Nude Food Movers Rubbish Free Lunch Boxes and used them today to pack a fun Halloween Stromboli lunch:

• a pepperoni and spinach Stromboli
• pizza sauce
• a monster kiwi

Strombolis are very easy to make and my kids love them. I don't add pizza sauce to mine but simply a filling like spinach or pepperoni and cheese. These are fail proof and easy and if you make enough for lunch and dinner you can take care of two meals at once! Gluten Free on a Shoestring has a great tutorial on her blog on how to make and fill these. If it has to go fast I simply use pizza dough from the refrigerated section in the supermarket. I use about 3 refrigerated doughs (the kind that comes in a can) to make enough for lunch and dinner for 6 people. 

And this cute Monster Kiwi was simply a peeled Kiwi with a kiwi peels kut into a monster mouth.

Halloween Mini RFLB

I am a Nude Food Day Ambassador this year trying to help keep plastic wrappings out of schools and to encourage others to use reusable lunch boxes. Using reusable lunch boxes is not only better for the environment but also better for your wallet. The average size family goes through over 500 plastic baggies a year, just for lunches, and the average school-age child generates 67 pounds of lunch trash per school year. Replacing disposable lunch items can save you up to $400/year!

We packed our Mini Rubbish Free Lunch Box with a spooky Halloween themed lunch today:

• Pumpkin Spice Mini Wheats (yes, they are as amazing as they sound!)
• apple slices
• and a "Scream Cheese" Cream cheese sandwich

National Nude Food Day 2015 {with Giveaway}

I am happy to say that I am a Nude Food Day Ambassador this year! Nude Food Day is celebrated every day during October this year and you can participate as well! I started my blog to journal our experiences with rubbish-free, healthy lunches. I am originally from Europe and being eco-friendly and earth consciencious is part of every day live where I am from. I love using eco-friendly and waste-free products and doing my part of keeping the landfills free of plastic baggies and disposables. I am proud to team up with Nude Food Movers this year!

Nude Food Day is a global initiative developed to encourage kids and parents to eat well and live well, and eliminate all unnecessary packaging and wrapping that goes into schools. Lots of schools around Australia have taking the opportunity to be involved. Nude Food Day has also launched in the UK and have secured Eco Schools, Keep Australia Beautiful, Wildlife Warriors and Australia Zoo as partners.

The official Nude Food day falls onto October 16th this year which also coincides with  Australia's National Nutrition Week and World Food Day. Using waste-free lunch containers is not just keeping your school rubbish free but also can save you quite a few dollars! Buying bigger containers of food items like yogurt will save you money in the long run, keep plastic out of landfills and help preserve wildlife.

Santa Lunch

One more Santa Lunch before Santa is here!

We packed a stamped Santa peanut butter and jelly sandwich with extra jelly and a little chocolate Santa!

Having a child who loves peanut butter sandwiches with lots of jelly, I LOVE (yes, LOVE) the Smash protector of this Nude Food Movers lunchbox. No more squished sandwiches!

Plus our Funkins reusable Napkins fit perfectly in the spot between the smash protector and the lid!

We also packed pears, crackers, a tangerine and a breakfast cookie.

Only 2 more sleeps!

New Lunchbox Fun

We have a couple of new lunch items at home and my kids were excited to try them out today. We had a snow day yesterday so it felt like a whole new start into the week today but it is already Wednesday, hooray!

Lunch is packed in our new Nude Food Movers Rubbish Free Lunchbox and we also packed one of our new Funkins reusable napkins today { Reviews coming soon!}

We packed two Christmas peanut butter and jelly sandwiches,

organic vanilla yogurt, sprinkles in a panda container and a little chocolate snowman.

We also had enough room for a cereal bar and tangerine and I tucked in the Christmas themed Funkin as well.

What did you pack today?
