Here’s a few ideas to make lunch for your kids or yourself a little more fun, healthy and be able to keep the portion sizes small.
These Bento meals were prepared by Maggie Brereton of SmashedPeasandCarrots.com using Rubbermaid LunchBlox Containers.
HEART THEME
Peaches with a heart pick, organic vanilla wafers, heart shaped blueberry jam sandwiches (with homemade jam!), pizza picks with Organic Valley string cheese and mini pepperoni slices, Annie’s cheddar bunnies, a couple of Nut-Free Energy Bites and fresh raspberries.
PUZZLE THEME
Grapes, broccoli, an organic Applegate ham and cheese sandwich cut into puzzle pieces, diced fresh strawberries with a froggy pick, and Annie’s bunny fruit snacks with mini doggy fork.
BUNNY THEME
Fresh raspberries with a bunny pick, bunny-shaped homemade blueberry jam sandwiches (with homemade blueberry jam–again!), bunny-shaped organic Applegate cheddar cheese slices, a few No-Bake Energy Bites with a bunny pick made with almond butter, grapes with leaf and stem picks, and a small portion of mini marshmallows for something sweet.
Also make sure you include a note like this to complete the box.
