Muffin Tin Monday's

Are you familiar with Muffin Tin Monday?

What's a Muffin Tin Lunch?
A muffin tin lunch is lunch served in a muffin tin. Easy enough, Right?
Well, a muffin tin requires small portions, small foods, and a lot of offerings.
You can also go to great lengths to cut  fun shapes, use party picks, use decorative cupcake holders, and decorate the muffin tin.
Most of the time, the muffin tin lunch has a theme.
Muffin Tin's can also be used from Breakfast, Snack, and Dinner.

For my first Muffin Tin I decided to do "Circles". I had been working with Hunter on shapes that week.

Top- (Left to right)- Grapes, Ritz Crackers, and cereal.
Bottom- (Left to right)- Pickles, Carrots, and a Peanut Butter sandwhich cut into a cricle.

Hunter's thoughts on the Muffin Tin lunch.
 Hunter had told me all morning long that he didn't want a muffin tin. He just wanted to eat his lunch.
I made the muffin tin lunch anyway, and he loved it. He ate his lunch and asked me if I could leave it out, so he could finish eatting it. My fiance thought this idea was corny, but the kids loved it.
They now want a muffin tin everyday!


The following week we done the theme "Gone Fishing"
Hunter loved this Muffin Tin theme!
Top- (Left to right)- Pretzels (Fishing Pole), Peanut Butter (Bait), and Whales (The fish of course).
Bottom- (Left to right)- Crushed Oreos (Dirt) , M&M's (Something extra),
and worms (The worms of course).
Took the Prezel Rod, dipped it in peanut butter, and caught a whale!


This theme was suppose to be How Does Your Garden Grow?
But, I had a slight problem. I knew how I wanted it in my head, but couldn't physically do it. Hunter loved it anyways and that's all that matters.
Peanut Butter Jelly Sandwhich (Fower), Green Beans (stem) and Applesauce (dirt).

This was last weeks muffin tin. We didn't do a theme.
Top- Left to Right- Ham and Cheese Dinosaur Sandwhich, and Strawberries.
Bottom- Left to Right- Blueberries, applesauce, and strawberries.
