E's snack on top - cheese sticks and orange slices. S's snack on the bottom - nuts and dried fruit and oranges.
Lunch was apple slices, half of a pumpkin pie granola bar, tortilla chips, cheese and deli meat skewers and some hummus (for S) or guacamole (for E). S has never been a fan of deli meat but I'm finding that he will eat it occasionally on a skewer.
Cheese, cracker and pears for snack today. S left two of the crackers - but hey, he ate two!
A smorgasbord for lunch today! Pasta, oranges and chicken salad on top and beans, cheese crackers and a no bake oatmeal cookie below. I go back and forth about offering a lot of choices or just a few. I think a lot is good as long as they don't have to open many containers...
I won all these goodies from Eileen at the Sublurbs! You can see some of the cute little food picks in the beans in the post above. I'm thinking I might make the boxes mine instead of letting the boys use them.... :)
E LOVES guacamole so today he had carrot sticks and some guacamole. S had hummus and carrot sticks (a lot this time..) Not much in the protein department but they are making up for it by eating a lot of veggies which they never eat enough of - nor do I for that matter...
Here is lunch. Yes, pizza again. The two pieces of pizza are packed this time with some very cinnamon-y apple sauce, half of a banana nut muffin and some grapes.
I had thought that making a Muffin Tin Monday breakfast on a Monday morning would not exactly work for me but I woke up eary so decided to give it a shot. Here is A's Christmas-y breakfast. Top row = "fairy" bread tree (toast with cream cheese and sprinkles, scrambled eggs, and very cinnamon-y apple sauce. Bottom row = grapes, a star shaped piece of ham and more eggs. We actually usually have cinnamon rolls for Christmas morning breakfast (when we are home at least) but I didn't make any. I figured the applesauce and fairy bread would suffice as something "treat like".
Cheese and grapes today for snack. They both said they really liked the hummus yesterday although they didn't eat much of it. They said that was because I only packed 5 carrots. When I said "what about the crackers?" they said that they didn't know they could dip the crackers.... ok..... Fine with me, I'll just pack more carrots next time!
Lunch today was chicken and cheese quesildillas and a little container of yogurt dip, cooked cauliflower, berries, orange and two chocolate kisses.
Woo hoo - a new snack food! The boys both decided that they like hummus! Yippiee! Todays snack was hummus with carrots and crackers for dipping. I realize that cheese crackers were probably not the best choice to go with hummus but they love cheese cracker so I thought I'd get better buy in on the hummus...
This is S's lunch. On top he had some Wild Puffs cereal, fruit leather, grilled chicken and some BBQ sauce in the bear container. On the bottom he had blackberries and oranges. I love it when berries are on sale for $0.88 a pack in the winter! A had the same lunch except with egg salad instead of chicken.
