Old-School Pudding Cups: New School Flavor

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walmart. All opinions are 100% mine.

As a mom of an 11 year old son, Cameron, I pack his lunch and he loves Super Snack Pack. Chocolate is his favorite. They are easy and convenient, perfect for a quick after school snack, school lunches, or just those busy weekends on the go. When I am at Walmart, I always pick up some new packs. And with the $1 off coupon, you can stock up at a great price! One creative way to make lunch more fun too is to make bento boxes. Here is a super fun one for Toy Story:

What you'll need

• Whole wheat mini pitas, stuffed with egg salad
• Alien cucumbers
• Woody's cantaloupe stars
• Lotso Bear teddy bear cookies & pretzels
•  

• Slice cucumber into rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.

• 

  Using a small knife, trim 2 pointy ear pieces, then join them with a semi circle to make the head. Save the extra piece for later.

• 

  With a small circle fondant cutter, cut one circle out of a slice of boiled egg white for the middle eye. Line up the cutter to the edge of the first circle to cut two crescent side "eyes." (Hint: If you do not have fondant cutters, a fatter straw will work too.)

• 

  Adhere the eyes to the top of the cucumber with tiny dots of cream cheese or hummus. A toothpick can help position the eye pieces.

• 

  From the extra cucumber piece, slice off a thin layer of outer peel. Using cutters, decorating tips, or various sized straws, cut three smaller circles for the eyes and one slightly larger circle for the mouth.

• Attach eyes and mouth with cream cheese/hummus and a toothpick.

• Cut one more circle from a thicker piece of cucumber and peel, approximately the same size as the mouth.

• 

  Break a small piece of spaghetti noodle (1/2 to 3/4 inch), poke through the last circle and into the top center of the alien's head to make the antenna.
  
  Keep the extra pieces of cucumber for lunches or salads, use the remaining boiled eggs for egg salad pita sandwiches.

• Mini pita sandwiches
  
  Make egg salad from remaining boiled eggs left from the Alien cucumbers and mayonnaise. Slice top of a mini pita and fill with egg salad.
  
  Cantaloupe stars
  
  Slice cantaloupe into thicker slices (1/4 to 1/2 inch thick). Cut stars using a small cookie cutter. Save extra pieces for fruit salad or just for underneath the stars in the bento.
  
  Other Toy Story Bento Ideas
  
  In lieu of egg salad, fill mini pitas with mozzarella, a small bit of tomato sauce and pepperoni, for the Aliens' Pizza Planet beginnings.
  
  Add a strawberry or two for Lotso Bear, for his strawberry fragrance.
