Sexy Carrots
Gus grew his own carrots this year. And some peas. In our family garden we’ve got tomatoes coming out of our ears. We even share with our backyard hens, sometimes. Those sweet hens give us delicious eggs to eat in our lunches, so a fresh tomato every now and again isn’t hard to part with. […]
Smoked Chicken, Lemon Spinach Pasta Salad & More
Papa smoked some more meat this weekend. There isn’t anything Gus likes quite like ‘meat on a bone’. Notice our feathered friend lurking near the breakfast bowl of granola? He really likes to help himself to a bit of granola from the breakfast bowls in the morning. Watch yourself…here I come! Getting closer and closer. […]
Sushi & a Ham Wrap
Sushi rolls might be one of the most pleasing things to put in lunches. They are real eye candy. My biggest kiddo loves sushi so every now and again we’ll get a roll and save it until the next day for lunch. This happens to be a veggie version with tofu, carrots, avocado and a […]
Rice Ball Faces
Two boys off to school today = two lunches on our counter first thing in the morning. Getting back in the swing of things has been quite a bit easier this year than years past. Soy yogurt, peanut butter and jelly bites, rice ball with nori face, carrots, lemon-covered almonds, fig cookies, strawberry star cookie, […]
First Day – Cartoon Lunch
I found a really awesome picture on the “net” of Phineas & Ferb, in food form, and I decided I’d try and recreate something to really blow these guys away. With the reveal the little one thought it was Tom & Jerry and the big one thought Ferb was a dog. Strike one for Mama. […]
Brat and Pan Fried Carrot Train
Love this train…well I love the boys that will eat that train at lunchtime today. Any tricks on getting your kids to eat carrots are very welcome! We still have a plethora of carrots to consume and my kids aren’t huge on raw carrots. These are pan fried in some olive oil. They prefer them […]
Star Wars PB&J, Sweet Clementine and More
Actually we’ve got a double clementine today, with some craisins crammed between, black beans above and some refreshing applesauce, diced apples, goldfish crackers and a flying Star Wars Peanut Butter and Jelly ooh and don’t forget about dessert and vitamins – and the force will be with you. And some more clementines to make […]
Star PB&Js, Raisins, Black Beans and More
Look at those cute little star sandwiches – PB&J style. Two juicy clementines, a handful of Sunmaid Raisins, Rainbow Goldfish, a small pile of Black Beans, a dollop of Applesauce, and some diced apples to fill a little belly with a big appetite today. Oh and don’t forget about that vitamin pile and the strawberry […]
Tofurkey and Chreese Sandwich, Perfect Clementines and More
No I didn’t spell cheese wrong. My poor lactose intolerant children have to eat Veggy Cheese. It isn’t good, I’m not gonna lie to you. They don’t seem to mind (most of the time). As for the Tofurkey it just lasts so much longer in the fridge and it tastes just the same as turkey…maybe […]
