Things I LOVE! Nude food movers!




I hate buying food when I am out. Which means packing snacks.

But I hate waste. Which means no cling wrap, ziplock baggies etc.



What I NORMALLY do is take a whole heaps of different containers. They are all mixed and matched and they bump around in my bag. And the lids come off. And they leak.




But today I discovered THESE!




These are the Nude Food Movers Snack tubes. Especially designed so you can pack your food with no packaging.




They are air tight. They are leak proof. (I tried!) and they screw together so you only have one thing to carry around when you are taking snacks for different people with you.

They are the perfect size for fruit salad, nuts, cereal, yogurt ... (and did I tell you they don't leak??)
When screwed together they are the same size as a water bottle, so they even fit in the water bottle compartment of a lunch cooler bag.
I LOVE THEM!
There is a whole new range of products! I can't wait to try more!
But I wanted to show you these - cause I think they are a really practical solution for us!
The website isn't online fully yet - but it is www.nudefoodmovers.com.au

oh! and here are the pancakes!~


Use it up! Don't throw it out!

Is it just my house? Or do other people's kids eat half a banana ALL the time?

Somehow this morning we had THREE halves of bananas left over from breakfast. (don't worry - they were cut up bananas - not the half that someone had chewed on and eaten.)

I didn't feel like freezing them for banana bread and I needed something extra for lunches ... so 5 minutes cooking (if that) and we had wholewheat banana pancakes!

YUM!

No recipe required. And they are SO sweet and lovely!

Basically I used a good hand of whole wheat self raising flour, a little egg replacer, some milk, and squashed up banana. And a little yoghurt cause that helps it rise.

I was one popular mummy this morning!
