OK, inspiration hit me this morning finally, whew! It's been a bit of a drab week, but I feel like today's lunch was really fun.
First off, Frankenstein. He is a peanut butter sandwich with all natural strawberry fruit leather cut out for the eyebrows, mouth and neck plugs. The M&M's for eyes and nose were "glued" on with a little peanut butter. I have a Yoplait yogurt container with a scrapbook paper cut out spider web. The grapes are just plain with a little Frankenstein stick to give a hint as to the sandwiches true identity. The carrot "toes" are almond slices glued on with cream cheese (cream cheese used was less than a teaspoon for 3 lunches worth.) The finger is a cheese stick with food safe markers. The $1/lb. grapes are officially gone (thank goodness because I was getting bored with them!) The yogurt was a 4 pack for $.90 (with coupon.) The carrots were $1 per bag and the bag of cheese sticks with coupon was $2. The almond slices were in a bag for $1.25 on sale and the fruit leather was $3.99 for a box of 8 (I used 1 for all face parts for 4 sandwiches.) The paper was found in my scraps of scrapbook paper. This meal was easily under $1!
