This Week’s Lunch Box Filler


The kids are always excited when they open their lunch boxes to discover Corn Chips and Salsa, but for my little diabetic, they are on the occasional snack list.  When I do include it in her lunch box I make sure I pick the corn chips with the lowest salt content. Finding containers that don’t leak and keep the salsa separate from the corn chips can be difficult, but so far I haven’t had any trouble with these clip containers from Sistema.  I use them every day for everything from dried fruit or crackers to carrot and celery sticks with dip.  And would you believe, so far this year we haven’t lost any container lids?  It must be a miracle!

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that my son complained about his yoghurt being warm, and what do you know?  This week, while doing some rushed grocery shopping I noticed some chilled containers designed to solve this very problem. Impulse Buy!   Apparently you keep the container in the freezer overnight, take it out and fill it with yoghurt in the morning and away you go.  It’s school holidays here next week, so I am going to give it a test run, and I will let you know how it goes.
