A waffle packed for lunch is still a waffle, which is most of the appeal. These are protein waffles, so what goes in the box has some staying power behind the novelty.
Around it: watermelon cut into flowers with a mini cookie cutter, blueberries, and cheddar cheese protein puffs for dessert.
Cut the watermelon flowers the morning of, not the night before. Watermelon keeps releasing water, and a shape cut twelve hours ahead arrives soft and sitting in a puddle.

"Dessert For Lunch" Lunchbox Details
For their main meal, Liv & Sawyer had protein packed waffles (each one has 5.5g protein) by @birchbenders that I cut into cone shapes. The toppings were bananas (which are often topped with hemp seeds for some extra healthy fats), dye-free sprinkles from @gosupernatural, and a blueberry on top. For dipping, they had Greek yogurt (can also be subbed with nut butter).
As a side dish, I packed them watermelon flowers and blueberries. I always find that cookie cutters are the easiest and best way to get my kids interested in eating pretty much anything. Shapes, letters, animals... any design makes food fun! 🍉
For their dessert, Liv & Sawyer had some Cheddar Cheese Protein Puffs. These organic snacks are packed with 10g protein and 5g fiber. Use code “IWONAMB25” for 25% off their protein snacks on their amazon account or website http://www.iwonorganics.com
