I'm mixing up some homemade guacamole and fresh mango salsa for school lunches this week
.
.
It's going to be a tasty week with spinach salad topped with fresh strawberries, yellow summer squash, slivered almonds, a boiled egg and feta
.
.
Toasted seaweed rolls filled with carrots, sweet orange peppers & avocado are served with a side of sweet and sour veggies & rice
.
.
There will be rice pudding made with almond milk for a dessert treat one day
.
.
Bakery rolls are filled with ham, avocado, spinach & smoked gouda
.
.
Piles of fresh veggies and fruit accompany every meal
.
.
And to finish off the menu plan, we made corn dog muffins. The Brawn spent more than 20 minutes begging to taste them. All of them. Stinker
.

It might seem like a lot of work. Maybe a little insane to prep five days worth of lunches all in one afternoon, but in reality, it took a total of less than 2 hours to organize and make our collection of happy little meals. And, really, I wouldn't trade our Sunday afternoon lunch making time for anything. Because for 2 hours, I spend time with my two oldest kidlets, talking about goals, the current books they're reading, laughing at bad jokes, and building a strong love of healthy foods that they will carry with them through life.
