Pie Press Sandwich

We are in the home stretch of Valentine's Day and I have to admit, I think I started making Valentine's Day themed lunches a bit to early this year because after almost a month, I'm running out of ideas!!  We will see what this week holds.  

Anyway, while at Target, I spotted an adorable heart shaped pie press.  Some of my bento friends have been using mini heart presses but I hadn't seen the larger one before.  This press was the side of the full piece of bread.  Actually, it was a little larger than the bread.  But, I just rolled the bread out slightly with a rolling pin in order to make it large enough to fit. 

In most case, I have at least 2 of each bento box so both my girls get pretty much the same lunch.  However, we only have one Yubo (so far) and one PlanetBox.  So, when I pack in them, their lunches vary slightly. 

PlanetBox:

 

• Turkey and cheese sandwich made using the heart shaped pie press and decorated with strawberry fruit leather hearts
• Raspberries
• Carrots with ranch
• Chips and Salsa
• 2 Hershey Kisses

Yubo:

• PB&J sandwich made using the heart shaped pie press and decorated with strawberry fruit leather heart
• Vanilla yogurt with raspberries
• Carrots with ranch
• Healthy chocolate muffin with "XOXO" sprinkles

Here are some of the products, or similar products, I used when creating these lunches:
