Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 just came out, and since it is one of our favorite movie series to see as a family, my son really wanted to watch it for his birthday. So of course we had to go and I had to make a Rocket Raccoon lunch to celebrate. This is complete with a Rocket sandwich, Groot pretzel sticks, and a blackberry space scene. I chose to make Rocket more cartoon-like for this lunch instead of realistic because the movie was pretty serious in many scenes and I wanted this lunch to be lighthearted. 

How to Make a Food Art Star Wars Stormtrooper Sandwich School Lunch Recipe!

 

Star Wars is more than an enjoyable way to spend time in our house, it's a passion. I grew up on it and my own kids have as well. We just finished watching the latest season of The Mandalorian and we can't wait for the next Star Wars-themed show or movie to release. We also believe May the 4th should be a national holiday! That is why I always have to make Star Wars-themed food art lunches for my kids during this time of year. 

How to Make an Easy Minions Food Art School Lunch Recipe for Your Kids!

Despicable Me Minions lunches are some of the most fun to make for my kids. You can make the Minions' lunch with anything and it makes sense because they do everything and use any prop available to man. I have made Christmas Minions, Football Minions, and more. However today I was looking for a very easy Minions lunch to make. And guess what? An easy Minions lunch works also!

If you go to your local grocery store you will find many Minions-branded snack items. The problem isn't finding them, it's deciding which one you want to use. For this lunch, I bought Minions fruit snacks and decided to make the rest out of other food. However, I also found an AMAZING printable Party Delights Blog. I am linking the page HERE, but it is free Minions printable cutouts that are made to go on bananas. It doesn't get any easier! All you need are bananas, the printable, scissors, and tape. Of course, I also had to include a teddy bear theme because the Minions love their teddy bear so much. But besides the printable, the rest of the ingredients are right at your local store. 

How to Make a Super Mario Bros. Food Art School Lunch for Your Kids!

 

Have you heard about the new Super Mario Bros. movie? It's a fun and exciting adventure that both you and your kids can enjoy together! My kids have all loved it. It's all about Mario and his brother Luigi trying to save Princess Toadstool from the villainous Bowser. The movie brings all the characters, challenging levels, and Mario themes to life on the big screen. Because it's so fun, I had to make my kids another Super Mario Bros. food art lunch to celebrate!

What's great about this new movie is that it stays true to the game's spirit while also adding new elements to keep things interesting. Chris Pratt stars as Mario, Charlie Day as Luigi, and Jack Black as Bowser. The movie is action-packed, funny, and full of nods to the game that fans will love. It's already been one of the most popular movies of the year.

So, if you're looking for a fun family movie night, the new Super Mario Bros movie is definitely worth checking out. It's a great way to introduce your kids to the world of Mario and all his friends in the Mushroom Kingdom. Plus, it can remind you why Super Mario Bros. 3 is the best video game ever made!

Ingredients: Bread, sweet pepper, blueberries, green apple, white chocolate chips, white cheese, cheddar cheese, granola, Super Mario Bros. fruit snacks, celery, strawberry, white icing or cream cheese, black and red food coloring.

Directions:

1. Make a Mario sandwich using bread, sliced turkey, sliced cheese, and red sweet pepper. Use circle cutters to easily create circles out of the food. The red "M" can be made with food coloring. 

2. Use star-shaped cutters to make star sandwiches just like the Mario sandwich. Place in main compartment along with blueberries.

3. Cut a slice from a green apple and put a circle of cheese around it. Attach white chocolate chips using frosting or cream cheese to make a Bowser shell and place in main compartment.

4. In one side compartment put granola and Super Mario Bros. fruit snacks.

5. Cut a triangle out of the top of a strawberry. Spread cream cheese or icing around the "mouth" area and also a few spots. Put blueberries in side compartment with a celery stick and strawberry on top to make a Piranha Plant.

How did we already get to the age where she is driving, going on dates, and has a real job?
