Today she went on a field trip, she had to have a disposable lunch..(I said NO WAY to lunchables, she said NO WAY to school PBJ and chips) SO this is what we came up with...
I kept the containers from some fresh Parmesan Cheese and some Grape Tomatoes, I put some pretty rainbow Duck tape(her favorite) over the container labels. I put a coffee filter in the bottom and then I put in the yogurt. I put that in the freezer overnight, my goal was to use the yogurt as an ice pack since she wanted a Ham and Cheese Sandwich with Mayo. 
This morning I added everything else. 
She got the "GoGurt", Grapes,Ham and Swiss sandwich, Trail Mix of Almonds,raisins,craisins, golden raisins, Apple Chips, and candy corn. She had the juice box to drink. 
I put the sandwich on top of the yogurt and grapes, it fit perfect, then everything went into a brown paper bag which she decorated! :-)
