Lunch Made Easy: Silly Salad School Lunch

Even a simple school lunch can be made silly and fun!

No special tools required, just a little creativity.

 

Gluten Free, Nut Free, & Tree Nut Free ~ This Allergy Friendly Lunch Box can also be made Egg Free by simply swapping the smiley face with another medium such as cheese or deli meat.

 

Lunch Made Easy: Orange You Glad It's Thursday?!

Hehe, this is actually the third time I've done an "Orange You Glad It's Thursday?!" post (see previous two HERE and HERE).  

For some reason, I'm always inspired to make lunch orange when we use our LunchBots Duo with the orange lid and my cute orange flower silicone cups!

Little Miss and her Hello Kitty pajamas were inspiration for a Hello Kitty lunchbox for Tuesday!

Thursday's lunch is a little "sticky"! ;)
Hardy har har...

Lunch Made Easy: Dog Days Night

Oddly enough, I've had this dog and bone cutter sitting in my box of cutters for probably a good 6 months now and haven't used them... LOL, when Little Miss made her lunch this past Sunday evening she saw them and was shocked that I'd been holding out on her! ;) So here you go baby girl!

Lunch Made Easy: Smiles & Style

Woohoo! TGIF! :)

Little Miss requested lunch in her Goodbyn Bynto again - I think she just loves the stickers and because it's "something new", lol...

Lunch Made Easy: Flower Bagel Bites

Well, I only got home about 45 minutes ago from a long day of travel for work. In that time managed to make two lunches, nibble on some leftover dinner, and put on my pajamas. Now here I sit blogging and then to button up some loose ends for work..that 3am alarm is going to be here before I blink! Good thing I operate well on very little sleep. :)  

Lunch Made Easy: Homemade Granola Bar & Lunchbox Love

Tuesday's lunch is simple and quickly put together, but still packs a lot of fun into this LunchBots Duo container:

Food for Thought: Chicken Parmesan Loaf (GF)

So you know how when you see a recipe on Pinterest that catches your eye and you can't wait to try it... Yeah, this is one I was geeked to give a shot at. Yum! It seemed so simple and delicious ~ And it is.

  

Lunch Made Easy: Simple Little Bites

I love lunches that can be put together quickly but also offer Little Miss lots of simple little bites of different things. Makes for a fun lunch. :)

In the blue flower silicon cup is from a leftover SunButter & jelly sandwich on gluten free, peanut free bread. Instead of wasting it, I cut it up into small bites.
Around it are red seedless grapes.

On the other side of this LunchBots Duo container is a small silicon clover cups of flower cut cheese bites. Beside it are freeze dried mangos.

There are also carrot sticks and a mini banana chocolate chip gluten-free muffin.

Lunch Made Easy: TGIF!! Smile!

Woot! Friday! Finally!! It's been one of those long weeks for us, lol... So I am soooo relieved it's Friday tomorrow. What better way to enjoy lunch then with a smile! Right?! Right! :)

Lunch Made Easy: Lunch by Little Miss

Since I got home at a decent hour today, I made lunches earlier in the evening. I let Little Miss pick out everything she wanted in her lunch. I think she did a pretty good job! :)

Lunch Made Easy: Sheepish Lunch

Here's the deal - you take the good with the bad. Some ideas are good, some are GREAT, and some... well, are sandwiches with marshmallows all over it.

Lunch Made Easy: Cauliflower Crust Lunchbox Pizza (with recipe)

Pizza is a favorite of Little Miss (and me too)! One reason since going gluten-free, I've been enjoying finding and making her fun alternatives to the "traditional crust" (such as the Chebe pizza muffins I made previously).

There are endless cauliflower crust recipes out there, most are very similar but with a twist on the seasonings and toppings used.
Here's my version which yields two crusts that fit perfectly inside this EasyLunchboxes container:

Lunch Made Easy: Babysitter Bento

Little Miss is actually off school tomorrow and Friday (conferences/ end of marking period).
She will be going to her usual babysitter, who's been watching her since she was about two and half I think, when she hasn't been in school.
She's a saint when it comes to being attentive to her needs and foods with regards to her peanut allergy but now that we're on the gluten free kick, I didn't want her to have to worry or feel like she had to purchase anything special. So we agreed that I would happily provide her with snacks and lunch for the days she's there. :)

Lunch Made Easy: Tuesday Treats

Little Miss was so cute this evening helping me pick out the goodies she wanted in her lunch for Tuesday ~ I love when I have time to pack them before she goes to bed and can be involved in what's inside her EasyLunchBoxes container.
Besides a sometimes quick Q&A session, lol.

Lunch Made Easy: Flowers and Cheese, Please

Little Miss is excited to try her new Udi's Gluten Free, Nut Free Bread in her lunch tomorrow. She was actually smelling the bread slices and said it smelled like a bakery, lol! I'll take that as a good sign it'll be yummy. :)

Lunch Made Easy: Chebe Cheese Bread ~ Gluten Free, Nut Free, Peanut Free, HomeFree :)

Monday's lunch features Chebe GF Cheese Bread that I baked Friday evening. (More info on this bread later in the post ... because it is delicious!)
