Lunch Made Easy: Taco Leftovers = Nachos for School!

I've said it before, "taco night" is probably Little Miss' favorite thing in the world. She and the fella have "taco races" to see who can eat the most.

 

I can say proudly that my daughter... WON last night! LOL

Girl ate FOUR tacos to his three. She was quite proud of herself! ;)

 

I thought she might be "taco'd out" after that but I asked if she wanted the perfect amount of remaining taco meat for school lunch today so she could make nachos. Without hesitation I received an emphatic "YES PLEASE!" in reply.

 

I love repurposing leftovers for lunch:

 

Lunch Made Easy: Romaine Wrap

While grocery shopping last weekend, I was trying to think outside the box with sandwiches for Little Miss, so I purchased some yummy organic romaine hearts to make wraps with.

I went ahead and let her try one to make sure she'd like it... And she did! Loved it even. *high five for Little miss and for Mama!* ;-)

Lunch Made Easy: GF Chicken Taco

Day two of gluten and peanut free lunches. :)

Side note: Little Miss had brown rice pasta Mac n' Cheese tonight and ate it like a champ! I wasn't sure how she'd respond since it is a noticeable difference in taste. She did in fact notice but I made it so cheesy I don't think she cared. lol :) Plus she's totally on board with trying new things to help her tummy feel better (LOVE that girl!)

Back to lunch -

Lunch Made Easy: Lazy Day Tacos

Ahh Friday! This week has flown by... we've been so busy (but all good things). Yesterday we took a road trip to visit family. Our LONG day trip involved 8 hours of Mama driving, so when we stumbled in at 1am I was tiiiiired. Here is lunch time ~ Little Miss and I are still in our jammies. We'll be productive this afternoon. I promise. ;) lol
