Breakfast for Lunch

Sometimes we like to eat some pancakes for breakfast and stick them in our cold lunch to eat a second time. When I make a batch of pancakes I make a mass of them and that seems to be the most effective way for us to have hot breakfast at least a few times during [...]
Red Beans and Rice, Pocky and More

Who needs more than red beans and rice and Pocky sticks? Oh what the heck we’ll throw about a billion other things in this lunch to spice it up a bit. Cherry tomatoes for starters, and of course some carrots from our garden (NONE of those are going in the compost this year), some couscous [...]
Facebook Followers Love Fairy Lunch

If you don’t already you ought to follow us on our Facebook Page we post extra photos there from time to time and we’d hate for you to miss them. Our theme for lunch today was fairy inspired. We had a Magical Fairy Party at our Toy Store on Friday and the bits of cheese [...]
Preschool Visit = Lunch Box Sweetness

I know many of you have seen this photo already because I posted it a while back. This is the lunch that went along with the post. I didn’t want to leave it out of the mix. These two peas in a pod are loving their lunches together. I get it, they are both pretty [...]
Last Day of School!

Mac and Cheese Banana and More We’ve got a medley for you today. I’ve decided the medley will be lacking description so the pictures will have to do the justice. Sweet little August on one of our winter morns during lunch prep. Looks like some dino sammy action in the house. Chocolate and Carrots – [...]
Turkey and Lettuce Sandwich, Pears/Apples and More

Out of bread again – so sandwich on a hot dog bun it is. The sandwich is filled with some Applegate Roast Turkey, locally grown greens, and some cheese or chreese. The rest of the lunch: Diced organic apples, sliced organic pears, vitamin pile, delicious pasta, a hard-boiled hen egg from our backyard chickens, soy [...]
Dinosaur Sandwiches, Strawberries and More

Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm – that is double the deliciousness. It looks so scrumptious to me. So we’ve got a diced up organic apple, a handful of blueberries, a dollop of soy yogurt, some organic strawberries and our vitamins to cover our bases – oops I almost forgot about the dinos – they are whole wheat [...]
Strawberries, Oranges, Apples, Oh My

Eggroll, Soy Yogurt and More

Two takes on the same deliciousness! Peanut Butter and Jelly (whether in squares or bite-sized bits) is a great standby that I know my kids will devour. Green Granny Smith Apples, a few strawberry bites, a vitaminĀ pile, some strawberry soy yogurt, an eggroll, and some goldfish will satisfy the hungry little elves today. And [...]
Berries – Strawberry and Blueberry and More

Of course there is more to the lunch than just berries. Hungry child cannot survive on berries alone (although mine would beg to differ). Chips and Hummus is another favorite around our house. If I open a container for an afternoon snack and turn around 5 minutes later that container is empty! The burrito is [...]
