Me and My Shadow embraced the Euro lunch with a week of European-inspired lunches, showcasing dishes from Spain, Italy and other nations. One favorite: Sweden.
Parents will love this inspired lunchbox meal for its incredible ease. Everything included is easy to find at your local grocery store, and often premade: rye bread, cheese, cucumber and orange slices, a hard-boiled egg and smoked salmon. Also included: some homemade ginger biscuits (which you could easily swap out with store-bought gingersnaps). Swedish flag topper not included.
