My kiddies love jelly and fruit, so much so if they had their way they'd eat it every day! They usually have it for their school lunches every 2nd day and 9 a week can hurt the budget!
I was buying the 4 packs of fruit/jelly when i could find them on special but even then i wasn't too impressed with the cost, not to mention the added landfill.
Sooo, i started to make my own. A big tin of 2 fruits, a packet of jelly and some reusable containers make for happy kiddies and more $$ left in the purse :) There's enough fruit for 11 pots but only enough jelly for 8. 0.79cents for the jelly and $2 for the tinned fruit is much better then $4-$6 for a pack of 4.
These containers are from the nude food movers range. They come with lids so are also great to pop in the lunch box for an occasional treat.
Until next time
