{Back to School Week} Heart Shaped Eggs & Bento Box

Disclosure: This post is written as a partnership with Great Day Farms Eggs; however, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

It’s back to school season!  I have been gearing up on my blog for Back to School.

Why?  I’m excited!  My son is starting Pre-K this year and although I am plagued with all those worries that haunt all parents, I’m also pretty excited about his new adventure!  I know he will enjoy this school year but part of going to school comes packing a good, healthy lunch!

I typically always pack my son’s lunches, I just prefer my own food.  I know what goes in it.  I also know how picky my son is is when it comes to food so I usually pack it with a good variety of foods because there is just no telling from day to day what mood he will be in as far as food goes!

One thing I know he loves are shaped eggs.  What are shaped eggs?  Basically all you do is crack and egg into a muffin tin and let it bake for a few minutes…then it comes out in the shape of the muffin tin.

Fabulous, right?

I thought for his first week back I would do the heart shaped eggs with our heart muffin tin.  I also like to use Great Day Farms Organic Eggs!

This gives my son a good boost of protein in his lunch and it’s healthy for him.  Plus, it is a very clean way to eat an egg.

Another great way to add egg to a lunch quickly is with the Great Day Farms Hard Boiled Eggs!  I use these all the time in lunches and on that wonderful Italian Salad!

Along with his egg, I also pack his lunch with sweet potato fries, pizza cups, macaroni and cheese, a little bit of popcorn, and a fruit.  Generally, I will do small amounts of each, but there is something about being at school all day that makes him hungry!  We pack ours in an Easy Lunchbox!
