Lunch Boxes - Move Away From The Sandwich

Back by popular demand....
What I feed our kids!
(I really wish you guys could read this the way I write it, because when I wrote 'What I feed our kids' I sang it in the voice of an announcer for a wrestling tournament.)

Anyway, no doubt our kids are pretty good eaters.

In fact the other day Hubby and Boy 2 had a conversation about the food in our house.
Boy 2 gave me 9 out of 10 stars for lunch.
I would have gotten higher, but sometimes I do 'sandwiches'.

This is one of Boy 1's favorite lunch box meals.
Here is the recipe for the shrimp - super easy and super fast.  You can make it the night before of if you are like me and wake up crazy early you can make it in the morning.  I do leave out the avocados because for some freaky reason the kids don't like the avocado in this meal, even though they can eat the heck out of guacamole.  I just don't get it.

Next up...super easy.  Grilled chicken cut into strips.  We had this for dinner & I made extra for lunches.
Add a little salad, fruit and rice krispy treats and you have happy kids!  :O)
The small containers hold BBQ for dipping and salad dressing.

When I'm out of everything else, I throw together 'lunchables'. 

Lamb chops.
True story.
Lamb chops at the international market are very reasonable for some reason and the kids love them.
And I love them.
And Hubby loves the.
We are a lamb chop lovin' family.
In fact tonight for dinner we are having lamb curry.
This is something I made for dinner and made extras so we could have left overs for lunch.
The kids will eat this cold.
And they are happy about it.

Turkey breast with a little rib meat.
A little broccoli for a couple of them, salad for the other two. 
Two of our kids can't stand broccoli.
Two of them will eat it by the bowl full.
Go figure.
