Fresh & Healthy: Lunch Box Meals
Getting the school lunches ready
The biggest challenge for me when making and prepping the school lunches is finding a good variety of items for the girls to take to school. Thankfully they eat almost everything (they don’t like liver) so that makes it easier for me. Although I do have one that if she gets the same item in the lunch several days in a row she’ll stop eating it, guess she needs a little food variety to keep her excited!
Lunch Box Meal:
- Beef & Bean Burrito
- Fresh Banana
- Fresh Broccoli
- Batman Fruit Snacks
- Red & Blue Tortilla Chips
- Strawberry & Lemon Circle Crisps
- Chex Mix or Animal Crackers
- Jelly Beans
- Fruit Punch Juice
Fresh banana, broccoli, burrito and more!
The girls really do eat most of the items in their lunch bags! I have found that the food I pack them hold them longer than when they eat lunches at school. Part of the reason may be because students that bring lunches get a few extra minutes to eat, plus they can eat any of the leftovers for a snack on the way to our after school activities.
