Tuesday Lunches

I am pairing these with some organic peanut butter and jelly whole wheat bun sandwiches. I am also hoping that I can find these "all natural" cheese puffs again. They even came with a $1 off coupon! I should have bought all of the bags they had! I think the boys will eat the green cauliflower too. I'm not sure why they don't really like it when it's white... I guess it's not broccoli enough for them then?

Vegetable (not) Fried Rice

We had the Vegetable (not) Fried Rice tonight from Budget Bytes website. Of course, I have to change it up, so we didn't add the bell peppers (yuck - too much burping for me thank you!), but instead doubled up the carrots and added some edamame and two eggs (instead of just one). We need lots of protein in this house of growing boys!!

Also, here is what I'm serving up for tomorrow's lunch for the boys. I think they'll dig it. It's basically celery with ranch dressing (we'll see if they actually use the ranch), some Whole Foods turkey in tortillas with mayo and grated carrots, some homemade carrot bread with cream cheese (yum!), Annie's bunny choco chip cookies, and a Stoneyfield Farms YoKids Yogurt. I'm pretty sure these boxes will be cleaned out (as long as my 4 year old's teacher lets him eat the cookies - they usually let them keep those around for after school snack).




Oh- and I'm so mad that my husband's iPhone 4 takes such better pictures than my mere year old iPhone model. Can you tell which picture he took and which one I took? Yea, me too.

Second day of second grade lunch

My son came home without a crumb (well, maybe one or two) in his lunch bag from his first day. This is a first for skinny-malinky-dinky-dink. Hopefully tomorrow (turkey tortilla wrap) will make him just as happy. I know he'll dig the banana bread muffin with choco chips, he loves celery sticks (go figure) and how can you turn down squeezy yogurt, grapes, string cheese and a cookie?

Tuesdays Bentos

The kids loved this sweet box. The sandwich had cream cheese inside of it. I think I needed to add some veggies in there but worried the kids wouldn't eat it.

Tuesday's Lunch for Two

Monday Lunch for Two

The boys started a summer program. This is what they got today.

Lunch

Wednesday Lunch

Oh- and I did send my boy with a bag of Fritos for the first time. I hope he doesn't think it's going to be a trend!

Thursday's Field Trip Tiffin

Chaz and I shared this at the park on the day of his field trip. I love my new tiffin! It fit two sandwiches, lots of strawberries, bananas and a little container for sugar (yes, I've allowed my son to pick up my addiction to sugar dipped strawberries!!). The yogurt was used for dipping strawberries too!

Monday and Tuesday boxes for the boys

Chaz actually made his lunch with the rice, Ramen, Juice Plus+, cookies and ham. He made one for his little brother too :)

Thursday Lunch

This is my kind of lunch!! Tuna, Crackers, Strawberries, Vanilla Yogurt, and Whole Foods Mint Cookies with Juice Plus+ Gummies!

Monday and Tuesday's Lunches

Friday's Lunch Box

Wednesday's Snacks

Well, actually the cheese and crackers were my lunch. The plate of "I don't know what I want to eat" stuff was for the boys.

Tuesday's Lunch

Turkey Sub, Noodles with Olive Oil and Parmesan, Broccoli, Grandpa's Carrot Bread

Friday's Lunch!

I wonder what will get eaten out of today's lunch box.

Thursday's Trunk

Wednesday's Tamales

Tuesday's Treasures

Yes, too much starch, too much gluten. At least the cakes are made from rice, the bread is packed with Omega-3s (love that Costco bread!) and the Juice Plus+ is always a plus! I also threw in a bottle of organic milk at the end realizing that might help make the lunch box a little heavier and my child wouldn't come home so emaciated.
