Here is my daughter's red and white themed, santa hat lunch for tomorrow. The santa hat is an inside out sandwich, where the top bread is on the bottom and she knows how to pull it out and place it on top to eat it like a regular sandwich.
The sandwich is almond butter and strawberry jelly and the white is cream cheese. It is on a bed of baby spinach and arugula salad with herbs.
The top right container has some of the last of our homegrown tomatoes from this year. A freeze came through this week and knocked out all the tomato and pepper plants as well as the rest of my basil. Some of the tomatoes were still on the vine and looked awesome - I got to them just in time!! However, I am kicking myself for not getting out there to get the basil to make a bunch of pesto!! The freeze got to it first. I do have some pesto in the freezer, but I could have easily made another big batch. Next year....
The remaining items are kashi whole grain crackers, dried cranberries, and white radish slices... we think they look like snow!
After taking the picture, I added a small container of salad dressing to the lunchbox.
What a cute santa hat!
ReplyDeleteLove that hat!!
ReplyDeleteCutie ... can I borrow the Santa hat?
ReplyDeleteAdorable!
ReplyDeleteSo cute, did you just cut it with a knife or had a cut out for the hat. I was making my daughter lunch yesterday and thinking of you! Ha! I got a huge gingerbread cookie cutter and cut her pb&j with it. I used raisins for the eyes and buttons. Nowhere near your skill but its a start!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are always so inspiring to me! Love the hat!
ReplyDeletecute lunch idea
ReplyDeletelia - feel free to borrow!
ReplyDeleteBrianne - sounds adorable! I have a bunch of christmas cutters, but this one was an easy enough shape to freehand.
That is adorable. Now if my son just liked cream cheese!
