School is back in session and we know what that means for busy moms and dads all over – chaos! There’s homework to complete, late-night soccer practices, endless grocery runs, and of course, early morning lunches to pack. If you want to make sure your child is receiving good nutrition and having a balanced lunch that won’t take up too much time, take a look at these back-to-school lunch ideas that will have the kiddos saying “YUM!”
Taco Tuesday
Who says your kid can’t enjoy their favorite food group on their lunch break? Mexican is easy to make at home, and all of the kiddos love it. Fill a lunchbox with a cheese quesadilla, guacamole, salsa, and tortilla chips. Don’t forget to throw in some fruit or a cookie as a sweet treat! Your kiddo will be craving this easy Mexican-inspired bento box every day of the week.
No More Sandwiches, Please
Do you find that your kids never eat sandwiches when you pack them? Instead of sending them a basic turkey sandwich that doesn’t interest them, pack the lunch meat and cheese in a different way. For kids, sometimes it’s all about presentation. Make turkey or ham and cheese roll-ups with a side of bell pepper, apple slices, and a fruit roll-up. They will love these easy-to-eat roll-ups and ask for them at home too.
Breakfast for Lunch
All kids love to eat breakfast, no matter the time of day. Send your little guy or girl a breakfast-themed lunch, including a bagel and cream cheese, yogurt with fruit and granola, some baby carrots for a veggie, and fruit snacks for a special treat. This will become a school lunch regular.
