Bon Appetit!



"Bon Appetit" is one of my children's favorite phrases, and I believe it was used in reference to this particular combination. It had a fun gourmet thing going on. I wouldn't mind having this for lunch myself!

RED: Prosciutto
(protein, dairy)

Yes folks - my kids like prosciutto! When you think about it, it IS just a fancy way to serve ham and cheese. And what kid doesn't like ham and cheese? This just has a different arrangement, a fancier name and a bigger price tag. But it's nice to eat like a princess once in a while.

Note: This is something usually considered best at room temperature. My older one likes it that way, but the younger one doesn't. She likes it cold, so I stash a flat ice pack under her bento inside the insulated bag to keep everything colder longer.

GREEN: Plum
(fruit)

YELLOW: Cucumber & ranch dip
(veggie, dairy)

PURPLE: Pita crackers
(carb)

I can't remember what flavor I got, but I think it was sea salt. I usually get cracked pepper and/or sea salt stuff unless I'm buying a fun chip like Cheetos or Doritos.

DRINK: Water
