FunBites- Triangles Review & Giveaway

*Giveaway Closed*

Besides the lunchbox, one of the most important tools in making lunch fun is the cutter.

Whether it's for a sandwich, fruit, vegetables, lunchmeat, pancakes... these cutters do it all!

While the FunBites line has a few other cutters (green squares, red or purple hearts)...

in this post, we'll be talking about the new orange triangle cutter.

This cutter makes: 10 triangles, 2 big and 8 small.

These cutters are extremely easy to use!

L: Press outside piece onto item, rock side-to-side

M: Lift outside piece up while pushing plunger down

R: Result

The lunches:

In this lunch I used the FunBites Triangle cutter to make ham sandwich stackers.

Included are Naturebox's BBQ corn nuts and a boiled egg.

In this lunch I was a little creative and used the FunBites

Triangle cutter to make an open faced bologna boat.

Included are pretzels, a boiled egg and some trix cereal to make the water and sun.

And now, on to the Giveaway!

One lucky Crazy? Maybe! reader will win a FunBites Triangle cutter for themselves!

DIY Lunchables

One of my kids' favorite lunches is a Lunchable replica.

This is their most recent one.

Includes:

Bologna & Cheese circles

Crackers

Pretzels

Yogurt

Apple

Mini Twix bar

When you make a Lunchable yourself, it will most likely be healthier and cheaper.

Need more ideas?

Kelly at EasyLunchboxes.com put together a great post explaining why

with great pictures of other DIY Lunchables. Click {here} for that post.

Used:

New Lunchbox!

This is the first lunch I've made in the Laptop Lunches box and I love it so far!

Both girls' lunches include:

Cheez-its

Cucumber slices

Naturebox Lemon Waffles and Dried Cranberries

Used:

Field Trip Lunch

Today I accompanied Audrey on her field trip to Meramec Caverns.

A Few Pictures:

We had a blast!

They asked for everyone to bring a sack lunch but since I went along,

I packed like I usually do and carried it.

As usual I used our Easylunchboxes.

In it is:

Peppered turkey sandwich

Salad with Caesar dressing (in the Minidipper)

Pretzels

Peaches cup

Water to drink

And I might add that I'm proud she went for her salad first.

She loves it. I swear she can eat it all day/every day!

I used:
