Lunchbox # 35 – Turkey & Cheese Sandwich, Carrot Sticks and Plum Tomato Caterpillar

Lunchbox # 35 (for 4 year old girl)

Coffee and Vanilla

  • sandwich (cut in half) made of mini bread roll, butter, turkey breast and Red Leicester cheese
  • caterpillar made of plum tomatoes, carrot sticks, red pepper tongue and kalonji seeds for eyes
  • owl shaped biscuit
  • red grapes in silicon muffin case
  • raw carrot sticks in silicon muffin case
  • mini box of raisins and dried apples
  • bottle of  mango & papaya tea
  • mini raspberry fromage frais + spoon
  • napkin

Coffee and Vanilla

Everything closed in a 600 ml (bottom and top tire together) lunchbox with a strap, placed together with large ice pack in an insulated lunch bag.

  • At the same time when I’m making lunchboxes for my 4 year old girl I’m preparing second lunchbox for 14 year old boy. They contain double-triple amount of almost the same things just not made to look cute, in plain 1000 ml transparent clip box (on request) with large gray ice pack. I replaced also animal shaped biscuits with regular malted biscuit and mini box of raisins and apples with larger one (they sell them in 3 different sizes).

Your thoughts…

  1. I like how the caterpillar is curving around the bread, very cute =)

  2. This looks like a great lunch for any age! I would grab it and run myself!

  3. Lovely…again. Aren’t grown up boys just different! How long does it take to prep each box? At least your chiccie’s box?

  4. It does not take long at all, about 20 minutes for both of them together with my coffee that I have to drink before I can start doing anything ;) If I have some steaming or cooking to do, I do it night before: steamed veggies, hard boiled eggs etc.

  5. I would LOVE to know where you got that adorable lunch box…Need to get some for my kiddos….Thanks bunches

  6. These lunch box ideas are so cute.
