Spicing it up!

As you may have noticed, my youngest in NOT very adventurous when it comes to sandwiches. The girl loves her PB&J! Now that she's in school every day and packing almost every day, I'm a little worried she's going to get burnt out. So, when I saw these pepperoni pizza puffs on Shannon's "Featured Friday" over at 'What's For Lunch at Our House', I knew I wanted to give them a try.

3 Pepperoni Pizza Puffs with pizza sauce for dipping

Tomato, cucumber and mozzarella (well, technically it's string cheese) salad with Italian dressing

Seedless black grapes

Mini Twix bar

Sweet Treat

Who says you can't have an ice cream cone for lunch?

2 sandwiches (Haley has turkey and cheddar and Ave has PB&J, both on whole wheat) stacked. I used the crust of the sandwich to make a waffle cone, provolone cheese for the ice cream, a cherry tomato for the cherry, and some sprinkles.

Carrots with ranch

Raspberries and blackberries

String cheese (halved and stacked)

Dove chocolate

Guess Whooooo Loves You

Today's lunch was inspired by one I saw at Cookie Cutter Lunch.

2 heart shaped turkey and cheddar sandwiches made on whole wheat (stacked). Owl decorations are made from carrot (beak), sugar eyes, cheddar (feet), the crust of bread (wings) and cucumber peel (eye brows)
