Soba Noodle Lunch Box

September 3, 2019 Amanda Plott

I’ve found lately that meal prepping my lunches has been my saving grace. If it wasn’t for preparing my lunches for a few days in advance, well… I’d be making some rather poor choices when it came time to eat. Getting back into the rhythm of ‘back-to-school’ has been a tougher transition this year than I had imagined.

This Soba Noodle Lunch Box is asian inspired with soba noodles, spiraled veggies, and of course a homemade Thai peanut dressing that is finger-licking good. Not only can you make this lunch box up ahead of time, you can also rest easy knowing the entire lunch is only 250 calories and vegetarian!…

Well. Here we are again. Another day, another lunch box option! I told y’all I was going to be sure to have plenty of them for the coming School year. This Italian Roll-Up Lunch is another easy to put together lunch that any Italian food lover is sure to enjoy.

With three layers of Italian meat, provolone cheese and a boat load of veggies, who could turn this amazing little lunch down?…

Skinny Buffalo Chicken Lunchbox

This is a short and not so sweet one today. Not sweet at all. In fact, it’s rather spicy! As we’re getting closer to the start of the school year, I’m doing my best to come up with fun and delicious lunchbox ideas for parents and kids alike. This Skinny Buffalo Chicken Lunchbox is one of my newest favorites.

With being quick and easy to make, this low carb, gluten-free, keto friendly lunch is a real winner, winner, chicken… lunch. I loaded this lunchbox up with plenty of fresh veggies and just as much buffalo chicken. And don’t think for a second that I left out the blue cheese or ranch…

Kid-Friendly Zucchini Sushi

July 19, 2019 Amanda Plott

Ugh… Back-to-school is coming up which is definitely a bittersweet time of year for me. I love having my mini-me around during the summer to plan and do all the fun things together. It’s been a good summer so far. Light and easy, just like this Kid-Friendly Zucchini Sushi!

Unlike traditional sushi, this is completely a kid centric style. You won’t find any raw seafood here. Nope! Just meat, cheese, carrots, and a zucchini shell. These little Kid-Friendly Zucchini Sushi bites are perfect for lunch boxes and finger-food snack or lunch plates…

Strawberry Banana Smoothie

June 17, 2019 Amanda Plott

In the past, I’ve not been a huge fan of drinking my meals. But… over the past year or two it’s become a go-to in a lot of cases. Life continues to get more crazy and busy, and it’s just easier and quicker to down a meal in a few glugs rather than sit and focus and eat. Although the latter is still my preferred method of eating, it’s just not always doable.

Enter this Strawberry Banana Smoothie.

If I’m going to drink my meal, I want it to be made with things I love and taste amazing. So? That’s where the strawberries and banana come in…

Rainbow Wrap Lunch Box

June 8, 2019 Amanda Plott

It’s getting hot here in Texas, and I don’t know about the rest of you but I could use something to cool me off by the time lunch rolls around. Even though we’re keeping things as simple as possible during the summer months, there’s still a lot of out-and-about happening. (The summer months are when the vast majority of our family birthdays are - so we’re all over the place celebrating!)

With all that’s going on around me, I like to have my lunch prepared and ready to go so that I can grab-and-go on my way out the door to whatever we might be off to. And since we’re in between our themed summer weeks of kids cooking/baking and fantasy, I thought this Rainbow Wrap Lunch Box would be the perfect fit…
