LOVE in a lunchbox

     Here's another Valentine-themed bento. I wondered if this bento would be to pink for the Little Guy, but he didn't seem to mind. Everything was GONE at the end of the school day!
     He had a ham-roll up, a BabyBel cheese, carrot slices, berries, and heart-shaped marshmallows.

Introducing the MUNCH-able

Little guy loves Lunchables. I think they are way over-priced and belong in the junk food category!
With that being said, I also hate for him to feel left out when his school friends take them. Here, is my version of a healthier, smarter verson of a Lunchable. I refer to it as a MUNCHABLE!


Included in this Munchable, are whole grain crackers, roast beef, ham, and turkey slcies, cheese, an applesause, and a lemonade cookie. Also, tucked inside is a gummy heart.

Heart bento

Since we're in the month of February, I've started making valentine themed bentos. This is the first and is SUPER SIMPLE AND CHEAP!!!! 
Heart shaped cookie cutter and picks can be purchased for a total of $2. 
There's cheese sandwiches cut into hearts, turkey "flowers", pineapple, and peas & corn. Oh, and a gummy heart hidden in there too!

Croods-themed lunch

The little guy, since he's been tired lately, has been watching way too much tv.  He's on his 391st time of watching The Croods. 
Here's a bento lunch to go with it. 

It's a mini-pita bread stuffed with ham. The cave drawings were made with food markers. He also has peach "flowers", carrot "bones", and chocolate rocks (with a few candy bones included). 

Sorry for the crappy photo. I'm still learning! :)

As always, thanks for looking!
