Bento Meals with a Twist!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Japanese boxed lunches are called bento or obento.<\/i> These meals are all the rage in Japan where mothers think of them as an expression of love for their children. I foun<\/span><\/span><\/span>d this fun site called Muffin Tin Mom<\/a> that was so cute and creative, I thought I’d share it with you.<\/span> She took the Japanese concept and made her own twist using muffin tins to encase your child’s lunch. It is so fun; my small and not-so-small children, love it! You’ll want to check out her site for more.<\/span><\/div>\n

This is so fun to shake up our lunches since out children are home with us. I found since serving lunch this way that they are introduced to more food groups and are fuller, longer. I use the 6 muffin tin and it is just perfect.  Don’t take my word for it…check this out for yourself and have fun making this for your babes!<\/span><\/div>\n
