I'd love to say I made the orange monster guy eyes... but they are plastic. They came out of a pumpkin carving kit. The orange monster guy is made with blood orange slices. Edamame finishes off this lunch.

creepy crawly spiders
The web is cut from a bake it yourself wheat tortilla - if you can't tell, I love these things and use them all the time! I cut a circle out of a larger tortilla. Then I cut out just a portion of a circle all the way around the tortilla to form the outer edge of the web. I used melted almond butter placed in a plastic baggie with the end snipped to swirl on the web design.
The large spider is made out of cut nori attached with almond butter to a 'late july' brand organic cookie (yumm, btw!). The eyes and web silk string are made from cheese. The mini spiders are cut out of nori using a small sun shaped cutter. The whole design lays on bed of sweet couscous (minus the raisins this time, after the mustache incident).

ReplyDeleteLove this!
ReplyDeleteI have always done "cupcake lunches" for my kids. Similar to a bento box (before I knew what a bento box was), I use a muffin tin and fill each spot with a small amount of something...a square of a sandwich, grapes, carrot sticks, cheerios, etc...he's always finished his lunch!
I adore the web!
