So, of course, lunch today for both boys is spaghetti. A few posts ago, I sent mac and cheese in a thermos for Z's lunch for the first time. He liked the thermos idea very much. A thermos is a great idea for sending hot foods for lunch. Paired with 3 of his other favorite foods- corn, strawberries, and yogurt- I expect this lunch box to come home completely empty.
I added a few homemade puppy picks for a bit of cuteness.
In this lunch:
*Mimi's amazing spaghetti served in a Thermos.
*sweet corn and red cherry tomatoes
*strawberries
*Yoplait Trix yogurt (We love the Trix yogurt. It has no artificial colors or sweeteners and tastes great.)
*green olives and Applegate bologna rolls

Some of the things I used to make this lunch:
10oz Thermos
Baking Buddies silicone baking cups
YUM! I am going to come over and try Mimi's spaghetti! Thanks for linking up at Leftovers on Fridays
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed scrolling through your blog at all the cute lunches you have done. My daughter is almost 3 and will love these lunches!! I am always looking to improve my spaghetti. Would your mom be willing to share her recipe?
ReplyDeleteThank you!! i am feeling inspired to have fun with my girl's lunches :)
Hi Christie! I would be glad to share her recipe if there were an actual recipe to share. My mom is the type of cook that just starts cooking and ends up with a great meal. She's been cooking so long that everything she cooks are her own creations, no actual recipes. Here are a couple of things that I like about her spaghetti...she uses whole button mushrooms (great, if you like mushrooms) in it, and uses 2 types of meat, ground beef and ground sausage. She uses a store bought sauce, but jazzes it up with her own spices and such.
