Lunchbots bento: bats in the belfry

I am loving having Halloween themes to work with! Today Ethan is having a bat-themed lunch. This ended up being quite appropriate in more ways than one, for this morning Ethan was driving me completely batty. But that's another story.

Halloween bento lunch:

In the top section there are strawberries on bat picks, a few grapes, baby carrots and another icky Halloween treat - gummy vampire teeth.
The bottom section holds grilled chicken cubes, cheddar cheese bats and a couple pieces of homemade bat-shaped garlic croutons. Get it? Garlic croutons? Vampire teeth? Bats? Tee-hee! Halloween is so fun. :)

The croutons turned out super cute!

This bento is packed in our stainless steel Lunchbots Duo box! Even the orange lid of the Duo is Halloweeny. ;-)
