I have a picky eater. Scratch that. She’s not really picky, she’s particular. Avery enjoys most foods as long as its on her terms. Banana? Yes, she’ll eat it, but don’t you dare cut it up! Blueberry waffle? Frozen please! Milk must be in a princess cup, and water in an octopus cup or water bottle. Sandwiches? Well, she prefers those deconstructed, and cut into shapes.
When I’m packing lunches for her I like to make them fun. Whether it’s for a picnic in the park or a day with grandma and grandpa, I want to make sure she eats instead of taking a bite and throwing the rest to the dog.
This week we planned a picnic dinner at a local park where one of our favorite children’s groups was performing. I decided to make Avery her own little sandwich kit (kind of like Lunchables) so she could make her own little mini sandwiches! It’s all about lunchbox fun!
These are perfect for school lunches, and very easy. They don’t take much longer than making a regular (not-so-fun sandwich) I grabbed our star cookie cutter and cut stars out of some delicious King’s Hawaiian bread. Then I did the same with some uncured honey ham and cheese.
You could stack them together, and make fun star shaped sandwiches but I chose to pack them separately so Avery could build her own!
I used silicone cupcake cups, but paper ones would work as well!
Avery loved them! In fact she ate every single bite, and then asked for more! This never happens, ever, so I was thrilled!

Don’t just make lunch, make lunch fun!

This is a fun lunch option! I think I’ll try to make it for my daughter’s field trip tomorrow.

I used to make stuff like this for my son when he was younger. Now he’s old enough that a sandwich like this would make him look “uncool”. Blech. I miss the old days.

This is so cute and so easy to do! I bet I have a few cutters I could do this with right now.
That is so cute! I love how easy it is to do but so fun!

I love that they can make the sandwiches themselves. I usually make the sandwiches then cut them with the cookie cutter – this is so much more fun
We love Hawaiian bread in our household. I like that mini sandwich kit.

She is such a doll!! Adorable! I don’t blame her for eating it all. King’s Hawaiian Bread is in hot demand at my house. We get at least 3 varieties almost weekly!!

How cute, I love that you even made the meat and cheese in shapes! My Mom loves King’s Hawaiian, it’s hard to find around here.
I love the muffin cups! Perfect for portion control and inspiring a balanced meal!

That’s a fun lunch. I love the star theme. I’m pinnning this now to my school lunch board.
Great pictures and a wonderful idea. I wish I had thought of this when my kids were younger. Would be an excellent way to encourage healthy eating.
These are cute options for back to school lunches! I need to try some next week in their lunches!

What a cute idea! I love the shapes! It probably helps a lot in getting kids to eat their lunches too

What a cute little kit. My kids love having their sandwiches cut fancy once in a while.
Great ideas for back to school lunches and with King Hawaian, even better!
