Simple Lunches

The first day back to school after Daylight Savings is always a little harder since my kids need time to adjust. Two of my kids were up very early and two slept in - so lunch today was very simple.

CuteZCute Sunbutter and Jelly sandwiches, popcorn chips, applesauce and a granola bar.

Two Sunbutter and Jelly CuteZCute frog sandwiches, popcorn chips and a few mini peppers. 

I also packed water and a yogurt.

Applesauce, more popcorn chips, a few dye-free chocolate Animal crackers, a CuteZCute frog fairy bread and apples in our Goodbyn.

I also packed a snack for my 5th Grader in our LunchBot Trio: trail mix, Somersault Salty Pepper crackers and apple bunnies. I found a great tutorial on how to make apple bunnies HERE.

Quick Lunches and A Panda Box

This is the sky as the kids were leaving for school today - beautiful.

I am looking forward to Daylight Savings however and a little more day light :)

We woke up late this morning - it has been a long week - and we did not have as much time to pack lunch.

So we packed hummus and pita chips, a ham and spinach sandwich with a star cut out and some chocolate covered raisins from the Halloween loot :) As always they also have water and yogurt.

My second grader has a very similiar lunch with hummus, pita bread and fairy bread and a mini chocolate tucked in his lunch box, too.

I was a little more creative with my first garder since he has not been eating a lot and I wanted to make lunch fun for him. We packed a triple CuteZCute chocolate spread sandwich, some dye-free chocolate animal crackers and a peanut butter and yogurt bar. I also packed him a juice instead of water today since I felt he needed it. 

Happy Panda Lunch, Love!

Sushi in a Cup

I was experimenting with brown rice sushi this weekend and even though my sushi did not keep it's shape the way I had hoped, it was delicious. The kids loved the rice and so I made them Sushi in a Cup for school today :)

Packed today is Pirate Booty, an all natural applesauce, garden cucumbers, dye-free chocolate animal crackers and Sushi in a Cup. The rice is seasoned with salt, pepper, sesame oil and mashed avocado and the face is made out of nori. I added a little ketchup for happy red cheeks :) We also packed yogurt and ice water.

Happy Monday and a hopefully good start into the week to you all,
