This week we’re keeping the eco-friendly theme going with a freebie from Bright and Bold. They’re a great online resource for all sorts of green home wares, including the much-loved Envirosax bags and other items like jewelry and gifts. Plus, everything on the site ships to the US for free (our favorite four letter word), so you gotta give it them for making the world a happier place.
This week we’re teaming up with Bright and Bold to offer up some earth-friendly products in a lunch-themed giveaway (shouldn’t more things in life be lunch-themed?). Three people can comment to win the perfect tools for a no-waste midday meal: their very own Klean Kanteen and a reusable Fresh Snack Pack bag. You’ve heard us rave about Klean Kanteens before (check it out here and here) and they’re consistently ranked as some of the best reusable, stainless steel bottles out there because they’re non-leaching and bpa-free. Which explains why we currently own three of them (only two are pictured because I keep one at work, so Burger’s filling in as an honorary member of the Klean Kanteen gang).
Along with the reusable water bottles, our trio of winners will also score the Fresh Snack Pack bags which are a great reusable alternative to the traditional Ziploc disposable sandwich bags. They’re made of food safe, nontoxic, PVC-free, Pthalate-free plastic that’s easy to clean and it even folds out to make a placemat. So you no longer have to worry about getting mustard on your latest work assignment (or am I the only one who does that?).
Here are this week’s entry details:
- PRIZE: A reusable lunch kit from Bright and Bold (a 27oz Klean Kanteen in your color of choice & a Fresh Snack Pack of sandwich-sized lunch bags- valued at $34)
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’LL EAT BRIGHT” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: Tell us your favorite go-to option for lunch? Grabbing a bite at a local restaurant? Indulging in last night’s leftovers? A classic PB&J?
- CONTEST CLOSES: Wednesday, August 12th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Three
- PRIZE SHIPS: USA and our northern neighbors in Canada
- THE USUAL: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner(s) will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!
Until then, happy lunching…

I’LL EAT BRIGHT! I like to pack a salad or leftovers with a small packet of something indulgent (a few potato chips, a piece of chocolate) to make it seem like treat.

Grab a handful of fresh spinach, throw in some tomatoes, mushrooms, cheese – whatever else might be lingering in the frige – and homemade croutons for a tasty, healthy, crunchy lunch!
Lauren A says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!
My fave lunch (especially when it’s cold out) is a bowl of tomato soup with a grilled cheese on wheat, add tomatoes and and sometimes asparagus and bacon. DELISH!
Noelle says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!!
To echo the many other responses – usually leftovers, but I do enjoy a good PB & J :-)
Meredith says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT! I’ll often eat the previous night’s left-overs with a fresh salad. If we had chicken, pork or steak the night before, I usually put it right in my salad with some kind of fun dressing.
Whitney says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!
My fave quick lunch is a vegan burrito that I buy at the bookstore at my university. Tex Mex is sooo tasty! :) Thanks for another great giveaway, my fingers are crossed! I’ve been wanting to buy a Kleen kanteen for a while, but being an unemployed student hasn’t allowed me to get one yet.
Catherine says
I’ll eat bright!
PB&J has been my fav since 1986!
Kate Weiss says

Oh Young House Love, give this teacher a reason to be happy about having to pack her lunch again! I’ve been loving spending the summer relaxing through lunch with a fresh salads with all sorts of local summer veggies and fruit. Or panini sandwiches with fresh basil, mozzarella, and tomatoes! I’m not looking forward to the end of summer and the return to teaching, and scarfing down a pb and j in hectic free period!
Andrea says
I’ll Eat Bright!
My lunch usually consists of leftovers…unless, of course, the boss is picking up the tab!!!
Megan says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!!
I have the bad habit of eating out every day for lunch — turns into an expensive undertaking in downtown Chicago!! I usually hit Potbelly’s for a TKY or the cafeteria downstairs for a salad.
mandy p says
i’ll eat bright! i’ll go with the leftovers any day! it feels nice not to waste!
Kari says

Favorite go-to lunch–planned overs. We always make large batches of anything that freezes well, freeze it in individual containers. At any given time, we have between 10 and 15 different lunches–stews, soups, etc.–to choose from for lunch. Throw them in a bag, and the defrost by lunchtime.
Lucy says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!
My go-to is definitely leftovers–so easy!

Those snack packs are the coolest! Way nicer than the ones I sewed for myself…

I’m a bring-your-lunch gal all the way. It’s PB&J, egg salad (mmm) or tuna for me… in fact, I’m getting hungry…

Prudence says
I’ll Eat Bright! I love salads for lunch. My husband has the leftovers from the night before.
Jen says
I’ll Eat Bright!!!
My favorite lunch all kinds of vegies stuffed into a whole wheat tortilla with Kraft’s Tuscan dressing, add in some grapes or an apple, and you have the PERFECT mid-day pick me up!!
Natalie S says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT! I have used my indescructable plastic water bottles (famous brand to remain nameless) every day for almost 8 years now! I’ve been wanting to switch to the healthier Kleen Kanteen brand but just haven’t gotten around to it! And those lunch bags would seriously cut down on the amount of waste I produce every week!
My favorite lunch is greek yogurt. There are lots of great ways to eat it but my recent favorite is with fresh blueberries, walnuts and a sprinkle of cinnamon. So yummy and quite healthy too! :)
Charity says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!
I usually make extra of whatever I am making for dinner (pasta, quiche, Indian, etc.) and then use that for lunch the next day. I also love to make sandwiches that are a bit unexpected like a huge bunch of spinach instead of meat with avocado, cheese, pepper flakes, and pepper jelly. So yummy!
Stephanie says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!
Since I only live 10 min from work, I go home everyday to eat lunch with my hubby who works 2nd shift. If we don’t have leftovers, my trusty “go-to” is always PB & J! Love it. I also would love the Bright & Bold products since I always pack his “lunch” for him to eat later that evening.
Mary-Carolyn says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!
My go-to lunch is a whole-wheat English Muffin, toasted with a little butter, straweberries and some pretzles. Yum!
Lindsay @ Likely Design says

Hmm… my current favorite is a tuna sandwich, but I’m also a big fan of PB&J or last nights leftovers.
Amy R. says

I usually forget to pack my lunch the night before so my go-to lunch is a pb&j sandwich, yogurt and a banana.

I usually eat leftovers, or something frozen and quickly prepared, but I love a delicious chunk chicken salad — chicken with mayo, sliced celery, chives and a little sesame seed. :) just enough to add a crunch and a bite!
Liz B says
I’ll eat bright!
LOVE a good sandwich with turkey, avocado, cheese and tomato. Seriously. I would especially love this with a cold water from my new kanteen!!
Diane says
I’ll Eat Bright!!!
Lunch used to be Qdoba quesadillas or a Panera Bread sandwich but I’m trying to take a healthier and cheaper bring my own lunch approach… a pbj!
Ashley says

I’m a kindergarten teacher and will be eating a lot of sandwiches as school starts back next week. I typically have a sandwich, fruit, yogurt, and something chocolate. I do enjoy when I have leftovers from a favorite restaurant though.
meaghan says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!
favorite lunch is pretty much ANYTHING from the Wegmans preprepared section. wegmans is a grocery store chain in western and central new york that specializes in incredible local produce and great selections of everything else. its just a grocery store, but if you ever get the chance to stop by one… DO.
Lauren says
I’ll Eat Bright!
I go to my trusty turkey sandwich when I need something quick!
Beth says

By the way…I have a Klean Kanteen water bottle and LOVE IT!

I like salad for lunch. With lots of yummy veggies on my small bed of lettuce.
Ally says
I’ll Eat Bright!!!
I either throw together a salad with leftovers from last night (lentils, tofu, etc) or have an egg on toast. It’s filling but incredibly quick. I have also been known to throw together a peanut butter and banana on pita when I’m really crunched for time.
Heather C says
I’LL EAT BRIGHT!
Quick strawberry salad with spinach, crumbled goat cheese, and whatever nuts I’ve got in the house
May says

When I didn’t work from home? A light progresso soup and a glass container to heat it in! And a sandwich or salad!
Meg says
I’ll eat bright! You bet!
I love to make pita pizza’s for dinner and save an extra one to eat the next day, cold. Mmmmmmm!
