The Easy, Sturdy, Eco-Friendly Lunch Box!

EasyLunchBoxes.com
 

Pack waste-free lunch boxes fast with our single-lid, 3-compartment, bento-style plastic food containers. Affordable lunch box containers and cooler bags for work or school lunches. This is the best lunchbox system to turn your kids lunch ideas into school lunches they can’t resist, or make your own healthy meal ideas a snap to pack for work. 


My EasyLunchbox System pairs food-safe reusable lunch containers with roomy cooler bags. It’s the green, sack lunch alternative — sized just right for kids and adults. Our lunch boxes allow you to pack lunches quickly, using your own healthy lunch recipes.  

EasyLunchboxes.com was born out of my response to disturbingly unhealthy school lunch programs. I resolved to send my kids to school with nutritious meals, using little to no wasteful packaging. And though I’m very concerned with my family’s health and nutrition, as a busy mom, I like to spend as little time as possible in the kitchen. I’m all about fresh, healthy and FAST.

My Thoughts :

The hubby was excited to get this in! While we don’t have kids it works perfect for our lunches every day. I have actually always searched for containers with separate compartments that the lid fits well enough so they don’t run together, and I finally got it! Hubby is not gentle with his lunches and half the time they end up sideways for half the day.

I love these because I can fit almost anything I need to in them, not just sandwiches! I’ve used it for Quasadillas, leftover chicken, veggies, etc. And they stack so well in my cabinet and in the fridge! With the cooler the containers fit perfectly, I have used it to fit a hard ice pack, 1 container, silverware and drink for him to take for lunch.

It amazes me that no one ever thought of such a simple and great concept before! I know hubby and I aren’t the only ones with issues of food running together or containers not fitting in the lunch box. It’s a simple idea that just makes sense for anyone, kids to adults.

EasyLuchBoxes.com is offering one of my readers a lunch pack for themselves!

Organic Soccer Ball :

$35.00 

This is one ball that your favorite little soccer player will be allowed to kick in the house. Delightfully soft and plush, it’s made from eco-friendly remaining 100% cotton organic fabric that’s free of chemicals and pesticides, giving you ultimate peace of mind when it comes to your child’s safety. Made according to rigorous Cora Carolina standards, the high-quality craftsmanship of this sporty soccer ball makes it sturdy enough to withstand rough-and-tumble play, yet cuddly enough to tuck into bed at night. As the fabric will vary, each is one of a kind. Makes the perfect gift for your little sports fan!
Amy’s Thoughts :
I’ll tell you, I am sort of ticky about the toys I let my son play with. I hate to buy things from the store, that has 2 pounds of packaging materials with it that will probably be around longer than the toy will. I also hate the over powering smell of chemicals that each toy seems to be drenched in, either from the process of making it, or from the materials themselves.
All this being said, I was so excited when I was offered the chance to review a toy from Cora Carolina. I received the Organic Soccer Ball, a soft, pure cotton soccer ball. My son took right to it, and of course, the first place it went was his mouth! He chews on it constantly, so it’s great that it’s all organic and has no chemical residues that he could ingest. When he throws it, it doesn’t hurt anyone or any of my furniture and breakables. It’s also easily laundered, so that when he does chew on it excessively, it only takes a wash cycle to make it clean and perfect again.
If you truly are concerned with the toys that your children play with, this is definitely a toy company to check out. They have a wide array of natural and organic toys for any child, and all at affordable prices.

My Thoughts :
Hubby and I recieved the above gift basket and fell in love! It comes tightly sealed and ready for yourself or to pass along as a gift. The shipping was very prompt. Since everything in it looked so delicious this was going to be a treat for our movie night!

The pretzels and dip were divine, I love honey mustard and the honey mustard pretzel dip just did me in. I snacked on that all night long, poor hubby only got to have one. He did however get to enjoy some of the other fabulous snacks from the basket and loved the key lime white chocolate chip cookies, neither of us had ever heard of those before this. There were so many great goodies I even got to share, I took some of the items I knew my parents would love to them. My father especially loved the almond pecan crunch.

With my company we like to try to do little gifts for our builders at Christmas time and have thought about gift baskets in the past. I can honestly say we will be looking into these this year, it’s professional but still classic and there’s something in there for everyone to enjoy.

GourmetGiftBaskets.com would like to offer one lucky reader a Snack Gift Basket of their own!
