Week in Bentos - 11/18 - 11/22

I realized I am way behind on posting these bentos when I started planning bentos for next week after a whole week's vacation! So thankful for so many things but also that my daughter got a whole week off of school! The week before, she was so sick she only went to school for two days, and the only cute lunch is as follows: 

Teddy bear shaped soy nut butter and jelly sandwich, teddy grahams, jello, carrots w/ ranch, and apple slices. Ironically my daughter lost her second tooth eating this sandwich! 

On to the week...
Monday - Flower shaped cheese Sammies, carrots w/ ranch, Cinnabon cereal, and an apple, banana, and tangerine kabob. She scarfed this lunch! 



Tuesday - Mozz cheese stick and turkey pepperoni kabobs, ritz crackers, apple slices with soy nut butter and chocolate chips for dipping, and Mott's fruit and veggie fruit snacks.

Wednesday - Breakfast for lunch! Homemade mini wheat pancakes with syrup for dipping, banana slices, applesauce pouch and hard boiled egg.

Thursday - Squanto lunch! Corn cakes with soy but butter, with fruit leather accents, candy eyes, and Mozz cheese stick "feathers", carrots w/ ranch, leaf shaped apple slices, Tri color pasta noodles, and 3 candy corn. 

Friday - Last day of school before vacation! 
Cheese turkey sandwich with apple slices and tangerine slice feathers, Mott's fruit & veggie fruit snacks, popcorn w/ candy corn, carrots w/ ranch and a hard boiled egg pilgrim. P

I hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving!!
