I know how busy and intense the transition from lazy summer days at the pool to adjusting back to the 6:30 am wake up calls can be…so I thought I’d help out by sharing a different lunchbox idea each day this month.
What’s In Today′s Lunchbox?!
- BLT Sandwiches (use my BLT Sliders with Parmesan-Mayo recipe!)
- Pickles (dill or sweet)
- Horizon Graham Crackers
Disclaimer: These ideas are just a small part of the total food eaten throughout the day. Some have smaller amounts of protein and/or green veggies than others, but you can balance that out with serving more protein or green veggies at other meals/snacks. Feel free to adjust these ideas to fit your family’s needs.
A lot of people have asked about how to keep food warm in their child’s lunchbox. For my own boys, I’ll pack warm foods in a food thermos container like the ones shown above (they also come in blue!). In this school lunchbox series, I’ve shown all the food in one container for ease of photographing.
