What’s For Lunch Wednesday – Day At The Zoo

While hubby and I were in New Orleans, Munch spent the night with a friend.  They had plans to visit the zoo with one of her friends and her son.  I packed up some snack bentos so they could keep the kiddos happy.

In an EasyLunchbox, strawberries and banana halves in the big compartment.  In the top compartment we have marble cheddar cheese cubes and nectarines in the bottom compartment.

And for some crunch…

Annie’s organic cheddar bunny snacks & Earth’s Best Apple Cinnamon graham cracker sticks in the Sassy box.

Muffin Tin Monday

Hubby took me to New Orleans this weekend so I am posting a lunch from last weekend.  I do have some snack bentos to share that I put together for Munch and the wonderful friend who watched her while we were out of town.

No theme for this Muffin Tin Meal...just a quick weekend lunch for Munch.  She didn't want to wait for me to get a good picture before she ate so I guess I put together some yummies!!

Turkey pepperoni, ranch for dipping, goldfish crackers

hard-boiled eggs, baby carrots, strawberries

She was ready for some dipping!

Bento Buys – Neat Avon items

As I was browsing through my Avon brochures a couple weeks ago, I came across some neat Bento-able products!!

Triple-Decker Food Container
      

Fun Appetizer Party Picks

 

And as featured in my post yesterday....

Go Anywhere Lunch Container

These are neat containers...however I haven't quite figured out how to close them without fumbling and almost spilling one side or the other.  It is probably best used if you just have a sandwich in the big side and other items in the other.  I'm going to keep working on it though!!

What's For Lunch Wednesday - July 7, 2010

I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July weekend!!

I love having short work weeks but it seems crazy that its Wednesday already!  That means its time for What's For Lunch Wednesday!!

I had a chicken sandwich on Nature's Own Multi-Grain rounds.  Below that is a hard-boiled egg and baby carrots.  To the side are Wheat Thin Flatbreads and next to them are pieces of the raisin bread I made in my breadmaker.

This was more than enough food for lunch.  I actually had a couple pieces of the raisin bread for a morning snack and then the egg and one more piece of raisin bread for an afternoon snack.

I'm hoping to post about the new container I'm using soon.  The jury is still out on it but I may just need some practice using it. 

Breakfast Bento - Pancake Sandwiches

It was a physical therapy morning so we took breakfast for Munch to eat in the waiting room.

I made leftover pancakes into peanut butter & jelly pancake-wiches.  Filling out the empty space are strawberries.

I really thought that these pancake sandwiches were going to be terribly messy.  Luckily, crumbs were the worst of it!

This is packed in our new Sassy box.  Munch is modeling it for you here:

Munch and I found this on a random stop at Babies R' Us. This has 9 pieces. 1 big outer container & lid, 3 small inner containers & lids and a spoon that snaps on the inside of the outer lid. I thought it was a great deal for around $5-6!!

Today's lunch

Sorry for the not-so-great camera phone pic.  While I'm getting pretty good at making myself put lunches together at night, I still tend procrastinate with the picture-taking.

Nothing too fancy here...sliced chicken, cheese & romaine lettuce on a kaiser-type roll.  Pretzels as my crunchy element and some sliced strawberries for dessert.

Muffin Tin Monday – Bits and pieces

I’ve wanted to participate in “Muffin Tin Monday” for awhile but just haven’t had any good ideas for themes.  Still haven’t come up with any great ideas but one night this week I had no great ideas for dinner either so I threw together a little bit of this and little bit of that for Munch.

She had apple slices with peanut butter below for dipping.  Next to the apples are cheese cubes and cucumbers.  Below the cheese is grilled chicken and for dessert, Organic cookies from Earth’s Best.

Yummy!!
