Lunch Made Easy: Bento by Little Miss

We got home a little late this evening. While dinner was cooking, I asked Little Miss what she wanted for lunch tomorrow. She first said "ooo ooo SunButter & Jelly" and then excitedly announced "but I wanna make it again Mom, I wanna make it!"  SOLD! lol ~ I present to you Friday's Lunch, a Little Miss Creation :)


Once again, much like her "Mothers Day Off" lunch that she made, she had enormous amounts of fun playing with as many bento tools and cutters she could get her hands on. She picked one of her EasyLunchBoxes containers to make it in too.

She chose The LunchPunch Sand*Wishes* Flower Garden cutter to use on her Udi's Cinnamon Raisin bread slices. (Udi's bread is gluten, dairy, soy, and nut free.) She filled it with SunButter & grape jelly.

She also had the GENIUS idea to use the small butterfly cutter on her EnjoyLife softbaked snickerdoodle cookies. Why didn't I think of that!? lol She even decorated her butterflies with our food safe markers. So cute! She had fun eating the "cookie scraps", of course. ;)

She chose pear slices and grapes for her fruits again. She had me help her cut up some fresh carrot sticks. She then filled a small bunny shaped silicone cup with dip for her carrots and added a few pea crisps. Oh and of course cut herself some flower carrots with our stainless veggies cutters again too. :)

The final touch, taking a few grapes and filling the flower cut out of the sandwich with them. This girl is pretty clever, let me tell ya!

  5. Oh what an awesome lunch! It's so handy to have a girl. They just love making our jobs look better each time. She must have taken it from her mama's kitchen ingenuity & creativity. Great Job, Little Miss!
