Lunch Made Easy: Avocado & Bacon Grilled Cheese {Gluten Free}

I love the face made when she first tried avocado. She scrunched her nose and said "it tastes like nothing... and nothing doesn't taste very good". (haha, I love kid's perspectives.)

 

Since then I've been serving it to her mixed with other foods, while reiterating to her the nutritional value. Avocado are a nutrient dense food; a great source of fiber, vitamin C, and potassium.

 

Let's face it, bacon makes everything better... and my Little Miss is also referred to as "The Baconater" in our house. So, this yummy Avocado & Bacon Grilled Cheese sandwich gives her the bacon she loves and nutrients for Mama's piece of mind.

 

 

Lunch Made Easy: MOMables Monday - I Love Bacon!

The great thing about MOMables School Lunch Menus is that it can spark an idea or a plan. You don't have to follow them exactly as pictured, but it can help for those days you're staring at an empty lunch container wondering what to do...

That's exactly how this "I Love Bacon!" lunch box came about! This lunch is gluten, peanut, & tree nut free.

Lunch Made Easy: MOMables Monday

I decided to start a new Monday series, "MOMables Monday".

Each Monday I'll feature a MOMables meal plan lunch for Little Miss.

They really are so great when looking for inspiration and healthy menu ideas!

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:

Food for Thought: Cream Cheese & Chive Stuffed Chicken Breast with Bacon

I made this for dinner Friday evening and it was a huge hit! Little Miss devoured an entire chicken breast to herself even. lol

Food for Thought: Bacon Egg & Cheese Breakfast Muffins

I've seen many different takes on recipes for these muffins or breakfast cup bakes... this version is the one I've always done and so naturally my fave. :)
