Summer is winding down for us. And that means back to school shopping,
getting the class supply list, back pack, and lunch box figured out before school starts. School may start soon for some of you. Hope you are inspired by these creative lunch boxes. All of these lunchboxes offer up not only a creative alternative to the brown paper bag, but are a great way to help reduce lunchtime waste.
Many of you have asked me how you can take
Muffin Tin Meals on the go. These are great options!
Comes with 4 durable lunchboxes that are durable, microwave/dishwasher safe,
also no harmful plastics like BPA, and FDA approved. Bags come in a variety of colors and the boxes fit right inside the bags with room for ice pack, drink and snack!
13.95 for 4 boxes and 7.95 for an insulated bag/case
Separate compartments and streamlined size plus it's a quality product at a great price. We purchased
Easy Lunchboxes last year and we love them. I have since recommended them to everyone I know. I can prep the night before and leave them stacked in the fridge. And if I am in a hurry in the morning I am so glad I have easy lunchboxes!
