Welcome Autumn - Muffin Tin Monday

With Fall officially launching last week I decided to break out a few spooky items for Muffin Tin Monday.  I found a jello mold of Halloween shapes at a thrift store, and this is the first time I've used it.
Pierce had garlic shrimp (shrimp is still a favorite food of his), grapes, green beans, and cheesy hash brown casserole (which is total comfort food and perfect for Fall!).  He ate all but a few bites of his hash brown casserole, and he also finished Cort's shrimp (and then Cort finished Pierce's casserole - so it worked out as an even trade). 

For more cute lunch ideas, go visit Muffin Tin Mom.

I'm always so impressed with what your kids eat! It makes me want to smarten up and do better at mealtimes.

Hi There, I'm back after a few weeks off from blogging. Hope you are doing okay. I have missed all of my blogging friends --but needed that break!

Don't know exactly where you live --but we may have gotten sorta close to you... Had a great time...

Hope you all are doing well... Love your creativity with the Muffin Tin Monday.

Hugs,
Betsy

Can't wait for Halloween. That cheesy hash brown casserole sounds so delicious to me. I think I could eat it for breakfast this morning. :) I'm impressed how they shared!

Any blog with pictures of Bears and a muffin tin has got to be a great place. For this Bear.
Don't mind me; I'll just have an ursine look around.
Something smells good!

That's awesome. I love the addition of the Halloween Flag and Bat.

Angela said...

Such a great looking lunch! I could go for some hashbrown casserole right now.

That's funny! I found a fruit jello mold at a thrift store 2 weeks ago. I couldn't resist because I think it was only a quarter!

That is one thing I've never cooked and that is shrimp. I've bought the breaded shrimp in a box and baked that. The garlic shrimp looks better.

For some reason it surprises me that Pierce likes shrimp. I don't remember liking seafood when I was young. I am ready for fall to hit us, 108 by the end of this week!

Jen said...

Yes, perfect comfort food...minus the shrimp ;)

Michelle said...

Your boys are lucky to have you being so creative with their food.
