Homemade Lunchables

I haven't had a ton of extra time the past month but I'm going to try and update when I can and post meal lists when I can. ^_^

Lately, Matt and I have been trying to do something different for lunches. Sandwiches get really boring after doing them every day for months on end. And since we're now also trying to watch our sodium (thanks for the suggestion julie!) we've cut out mac & cheese and chili. So this week we experimented with homemade Lunchables. It actually works out really well! It's like a meat, cheese, and fruit tray for lunch! It's also great because you can use leftovers or whatever meat and/or cheese is currently in your fridge. For example, we have a half a bag of turkey pepperoni and some hotdogs. So that got added to our lunchables plate. We also added some diced lunch meat. For cheeses we had some cheddar slices and a bit of cream cheese. Put all that on one plate with some grapes, kiwi, and strawberries and it's a nice alternative meal to the usual sammich.
