Birthday Bento

 Birthday Bento is full of some of her favorite things. I put a twist (literally) on one of her favorite foods a hot dog! I saw this somewhere that you spiral a hot dog, so cute and easy to do.

Tip: I took a chopstick and pushed it through the center of the hot dog and then with a knife you cut around the hot dog going down in a spiral. When you take it off and cook it your kiddo will love it!

I put the cooked spiral dog onto a heart shaped stick, added some colorfull fish crackers and a cupcake decoration on one side, the other has fruit newton and a rainbow shooting star .

On the opposite side I have  happy birthday pick in some kiwi and orange slices. Below that I carved an apple with “Big 10″ and a cake.

After school she said she loved her lunch and especially the cool hot dog and birthday apple, what more can I say but job well done for Momma points!

MommaSays: Hot dogs are a kiddo favorite, choose healthy version of this and you wont have any fears of them eating this all American treat.  It is worth the peace of mind to spend a little extra on a good hot dog that is all beef and nitrate free!
