Happy November! Another month and that means another Enjoy Life Foods Friday!
In case you missed our last two segments, each month Enjoy Life Foods has challenged me to come up with lunch box ideas using a certain product. In September the focus was Plentils and in October it was Boom Choco Boom chocolate bars. 
For November, the challenge was once again chocolate. Oh darn! Forced to bake with and eat lots of gluten & top 8 free chocolate. I'm sure you're crying a river for me! lol
That's right - This month is alllllllllll about the chocolate lovers out there. We're sharing delicious lunch box ideas using Enjoy Life Foods Chocolate Baking Chips, including their brand new Dark Chocolate Morsels! *drool*

SunButter & Chocolate Cake Pops! {Gluten & Allergy Free} #Recipe

Back in March, I shared a teaser photo on our Facebook page of these fabulous cake pops we made. It wasn't until we made more last evening, for guests that came over for dinner, that I realized I hadn't posted it yet! (D'oh!)
So, I managed to snap a few more photos before the girls devoured them! Little Miss was so excited to share one of her new favorite recipes with friends. 
They're Gluten & Top 8 Allergy Free! That's right. Free from dairy, eggs, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, soy & more. Perfect for dessert or a sweet popable snack. ;) 

@HomeFreeTreats Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Cups #Recipe!

This past Saturday we celebrated Christmas with my family.

My folks are the most amazing individuals when it comes to Little Miss' food allergies/ intolerances. They keep a peanut free home and well stocked with gluten & nut free treats for her at all times. So lack of choices for my girl wasn't an issue, thankfully, because I had baked up a batch of these delicious {Gluten Free} Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Cups... aaaaand then left them at home in the fridge. *D'OH!*

 

 

A @Savorfull December to Remember! #AllergyFriendlyFoods (Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe Included in Post!)

Each month Little Miss anxiously awaits for her green box of {allergy free} goodies from Savorfull!

Just like past boxes, December did not disappoint on the deliciousness.

 

Lunch Made Easy: MOMables Monday - Pumpkin Pancakes for my lil' punkin!

When I saw this Pumpkin Pancakes post on MOMables last week by Chef Corey, I knew Little Miss would LOVE them!

We of course made ours {Allergy Friendly} and added some yummy chocolate chips!

Lunch Made Easy: Fast & Fresh, Simple Salad

I am very thankful over the past few years Little Miss has grown to *love* eating salads. A great meal and source of nutrition, it also makes for a fast & fresh, simple school lunch!

 

This lunch box could easily be made dairy free by substituting the mozzarella cheese with dairy-free mozzarella style shreds. It's also egg-free, gluten-free, peanut-free, & treenut-free.

 

Allergy friendly food can be colorfully delicious!

 

Food for Thought: Chewy Chocolate Mint Cookie Cups ~ Gluten, Nut, & Egg FREE

Since buying our Andes Creme de Menthe Baking Chips, I've been using them all over the place - added into Chobani Greek Yogurt, sprinkled into my coffee... anywhere to add a little "mint kick", that Little Miss and I love so much!

As we were grocery shopping, and picking up another bag, I was really craving some freshly baked cookies... so she and I put our thinking caps on and came up with these delicious little gems! Perfect for snacks, dessert, and even in the lunchbox. Yumm-o!

Little Miss always love random Hello Kitty appearances in her lunchbox. This one is simple, but will make her smile when she opens the lid of her EasyLunchBoxes container tomorrow. :)

Lunch Made Easy: Butterfly Bento

What a wonderful weekend spend with family and friends.

It was also emotional at church service Sunday AM with a time of reflection honoring our service men and women, along with their families. Not only that, I witnessed a dear friend get baptised. It was so moving to hug her before she walked down, tears in her eyes... which of course made me tear up! How could it not?! So amazing.

I hope everyone had a safe and happy Memorial Day weekend!

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:

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.

Food for Thought: HomeFree Cookie Shooter

When I saw these fab Cool Whip Cookie Shooters over at Clevery Inspired, I knew that Little Miss would looooooooooove such a treat. I also knew the perfect cookies to use, our mini crunch HomeFree cookies of course!

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.
