it was pure utopia to think that my toddler 6 year-old would now be packing his lunchboxes on a daily basis. ok, wishful thinking on my part. he was well intentioned, mind you. but at 7am, a 6-year-old is barely able to gobble down his oatmeal, let alone make a conscious decision about what to have for lunch. not that his mother is any more alert at 7am… but hey… i am allowed to have coffee (make it espresso double shot) — he is not!
so, the idea that the title of this blog is “my toddler’s lunchbox” can seem irrelevant, considering i have a first grader at home. but before 2012 is over, i will start packing lunchboxes for a toddler again: my daughter, little-bundle-of-sunshine-sister-to-my-6-year-old. therefore, we keep the blog title.
- walnut form bread with chicken
- greek olives (so goooood!)
- cucumber & carrots
- spanakopita (our own spin of the original greek version) on top of some whole wheat spaghetti + pesto
- applesauce made by grandma with apples from her own backyard with a few raisins just for show
- crunchy red peppers (or as they call them in Denmark-landia: snack peppers)

Your 6 year old will eat that! I’m 22 years old and I wouldn’t touch half the things in the lunchbox, haha. I’m trying to broaden my pallet and learn to love new things.
we are lucky to have kids that are not too fussy. well, they go through phases. but mostly they eat a variety of stuff. have fun trying new stuff. if i had the budget to travel the world, i would just to taste different foods on all continents.
