We needed at least one new Halloween Bento Lunch this year and I was having trouble coming up with new ideas.
In the process of looking for a cookie cutter, I found an old spider web outline cutter. Inspiration struck and I figured I could likely use a knife to cut out the inside design. If that worked, I knew I could make a spider somehow or another.
And my plan worked! With the right knife skills, I am completely capable of making a spider web. And, since I had a spider web, I had to make a spider. He's made out of pepperoni--two legs equals one arc of pepperoni and the middle is one of the leftovers. Everything is held down with dots of mayo.
In this lunch, Ben took a turkey and cheddar sandwich with mayo on multigrain rounds, because I wanted to surface area to make the spider and web. He reported that it all stayed together, so the mayo really did work as glue. Below that, he has a chocolate chip granola bar.
To the right, he has a mix of Halloween M&Ms and pretzel goldfish in one compartment and some grapes with Halloween picks from the dollar store. Lunch is packed in one of our EasyLunchboxes.
