Day 292

Day 292 - D watched A Nightmare Before Christmas the other day and fell in love with Jack Skellington!  I knew that some of my BBF's (Bento Blogging Friends) had made a Jack lunch so I went looking for inspiration.

D saw this lunch from Cristi at Bento On Better Lunches and was quite impressed!  Mine is not nearly as cute!  LOL

Tracie at Lunch, Snack And Sninner made hers for the Halloween Blog Hop.  I love how she used contrasting bread!

Karen from What's In Our Lunch Bags also made hers for the blog hop.  I have to be honest...the spider freaks me out a bit!  LOL

Shannon at What's For Lunch At Our House made this one that was featured on Disney's Family.Com!

So D's lunch features a Dark Chocolate PB Jack sandwich, some dark chocolate covered wafer cookies decorated with Wilton Icing Writer, grape tomatoes, string cheese, orange jack o' lantern and some Chobani Champions Very Berry yogurt.  After I took the picture I remembered that I had some fresh raspberries in the fridge so I put them on top of the yogurt as well.

Day 29

M has bbq chicken quesadilla, asparagus, carrots and green beans.  In the black bag is a granola/protein bar and a black bean brownie.  D has yogurt with strawberries and some Kashi Go Lean Crunch.

D and A are having Asian Chicken salad pockets, yogurt and strawberries and string cheese.

Day 7

Snow Day!!!  We had our second blizzard of the season here in the North East so no school for the kids!

This is what D had for lunch.

High protein, multigrain bowtie pasta with tomato cream sauce, 2 chicken meatballs, greek yogurt with blueberries and some trail mix.  I bought the chicken meatballs pre-made.  I don't usually buy pre-made food, but these were on sale and I recognized all the ingredients on the label and the sodium was at a level I could live with. 

Tomato Cream Sauce
I just used a can of diced tomatoes (seasoned with garlic and oregano) and a splash of cream.  The trail mix is Emerald brand S'mores.
