I ran across this fun idea quite awhile ago, but just made my very first muffin tin meals for the kids' lunch today. First I had to find the right muffin tins. I only had the 12-cup kind and really needed 6-cups so each kid could have their own just the right size. Lucky me, I found two heart shaped silicon muffin "tins" on clearance a while back, but still hadn't used them. Today was the day. Here was my creation and yes they thoroughly enjoyed this great "surprise". The hardest part was keeping them out of the kitchen long enough so I could actually surprise them with it. They were in the dining room trying to guess "is it cupcakes? is it cake? is it pie?" Although it was none of the above, they were still excited for their special lunch and dove right in.
From top right: grapes, cheese cubes, crinkle cut carrots w/ Ranch, Wheat Ritz, ham, Yoplait yogurt w/ sprinkles
