DIY Lunch Stations

Running a household.  Keeping the kids safe and occupied.  Errands and doctor’s appointments.  And meals.  So. Many. Meals.  Even if you enjoy cooking, the logistics can get overwhelming.  And lunchtime in the midst of a busy day can be tricky.  (especially if Mom might like an ounce of downtime to recharge!)

DIY Lunch Stations to the rescue!  Due to the popularity of her DIY Breakfast Stations, Kim at Not Consumed has created another great system to help us simplify and streamline our meals!

The idea is simple:  Do a little bulk-cooking session, and enjoy having well over one hundred DIY-ready lunches ready to roll!  Lovely!  You can read more about it here.
