Spinach and Pepperoni Roll-Ups: My Diary of Us

Spinach Pepperoni Roll-Ups and Back to School Essentials

This post was kindly sponsored by Kroger Marketplace, but as always all thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.

In a blink of an eye, the summer has come and gone and it's time to start planning everything back to school!  From buying school supplies, to planning out lunch boxes, and everything in between it can be a bit overwhelming to get that to-do list completed before the first day of school starts!  As a mom, I get it...there aren't enough hours in the day to get everything done!  That's why I am all about doing finding ways to save me time and energy, especially at this time of year!  That's why I partnered with Kroger Marketplace to bring you an easy guide to checking off all of your items on your back to school supply list all in one stop!  I'm also sharing one of my favorite easy lunch box recipes, my Spinach and Pepperoni Roll-Ups, that your kids are going to love in addition to those back to school essentials!

Did you know Kroger Marketplace has more than just the groceries you need for lunch boxes and weeknight meals?  They have a whole back to school section that is filled with backpacks, pencils, notebooks, water bottles, lunch box supplies, and more, making it easy on us as parents when it comes to finding everything our kids need all in one place!

From ages preschool on up, Kroger Marketplace is your go-to back to school shop!  I was able to pick up a really cute backpack in Parks' favorite color and even found a coordinating dinosaur lunch box that he loves too!  I stocked up on lunch box snack containers, a new water bottle, and all of his school needs such as crayons, a notebook, water colors, and more!  I was so excited that I was able to find everything on his school list right in the back to school section at Kroger!  I was in and out in under twenty minutes keeping me on track with my day!  

Head over to Kroger.com to find out more about the great options they have for back to school including great digital offers including coupons, and ClickList pick-up that make it even easier on busy moms!

Back to School Essentials: My Diary of Us

In addition to the cutest lunch box and backpack, I also picked up some ingredients to make one of my favorite lunch box recipes that kids go crazy over!  My spinach and pepperoni roll-ups are perfect to make in advance and are great warm or room temperature making them ideal for school lunches!

P woke up this morning wanting to make me a Rosie cake (the girl train from Thomas) for my birthday. 🥰 So that’s what we did...even if Rosie is a little smudgey and P went a little heavy on the sprinkles, the excitement he had helping me make a birthday cake (for myself 🤣) made my birthday that much more special. 💖
_
Between the cake, the memories, and my surprise spa morning 🙌 (thanks to my wonderful hubby), I’d say 35 is off to a great start.  Thank you all for the birthday wishes!! It has truly made me feel so loved! And I love each and every one of you right back! 😘

P.S. Who needs a fork to eat cake when you can eat it with your hands...
