Lovable Lunch for my Little one

As you already know, I love making Lovable Lunches for my daughter who just started first grade. I often get asked what I feed my little one (age 3) for lunch.

Truthfully, I always thought she was picky eater because she did not really like to eat lunch. She would only take one bite  if I made sandwiches or casseroles etc. I have found that if I let her have the choice to put things together {and present it with a Minnie Mouse Fork}  she eats much better. Here is a picture of the lunch my 3 year old ate today {She ate all but half the cucumbers}.

This lunch includes:

  • star shaped bread, sausage & cheese
  • coleslaw
  • apple slices
  • organic yogurt
  •  flower shaped cucumbers
  • fresh sliced Roma tomatoes (from a friend)

That is the cutest little lunch! And, I love the Minnie Mouse silver ware. My sisters and I had those growing up, so seeing it here brought back good memories. : )

That is cute!! We don't have Bulk Barn here in the US so I'll have to search around for inexpensive small cookie cutters!

I just ran across this blog and adore the little lunches! I have all boys, so parts of it may be too froo-froo for them, but if I can find a way to "man it up", then I think they would LOVE to open that up for lunch. Thanks for the great post!

Glad you came across my blog today Jennifer! What kids of things are your boys into? You could use shapes of vehicles, airplanes, army men...I'm sure they would love it! I did a lunch (I have not posted it yet) of a house with a car in the driveway. Thanks for leaving a comment, have a great day!
