We ♥ Trader Joe's at our house. It's a good haul from our house to the closest store but completely worth it. We are all about those products that are exclusive to TJ's and we can't live without them. We are totally addicted to a couple of them. But, what is even better about Trader Joe's is their impressive fresh produce. We've tried everything from teeny tiny potatoes to pea shoots and keep going back for more. We also found something else on our trip last week and the girls are ecstatic to have them in their lunches for tomorrow.
Our main entree is a salami and colby jack cheese sandwich on Trader Joe's whole grain bread. We used a flower shaped cookie cutter for the large sandwich and our micro heart for the tiny ones.
Our vegetable side is a seedless cucumber that has been cut using a fluted Japanese vegetable cutter.
Our fruit side is....Champagne grapes! Those tiny little grapes that champagne is made from. They are adorable and have a great sweet flavor.
Our dairy side is a Sargento colby jack cheese stick. The girls have a larger appetite at the beginning of the year so this is a great way to curb their hunger.
Finally, our dessert is raspberry yogurt covered pretzels. We put a few of these in this lunch for a special little treat.
If you like Trader Joe's and lunches as much as we do, our friends at Easy Lunchboxes are coming out with a cookbook very soon. Pre-Order you copy with the link below.
