My children have gotten hot lunch at school for years...but for some reason they decided they wanted to bring their own lunch.
I don't know about you...but I have found myself floundering around trying to find items to put into the kids lunch... I tend to end up with making a peanut butter sandwich and a piece of fruit.
My children started school this week and I wanted to give them some food that is healthy and that they would eat! Because lets face it...if they don't like it...they will probably throw it away.
So this is what we did...
My daughter "wanted" a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, so I did make one...but on homemade bread, apple and homemade granola bar.
The second day I packed hummus and some fresh veggies, homemade granola bar, Tortilla chips...She loved it! Note: she did come home saying that she didn't think that anyone else eats as healthy as her :)
The third day I made little pizzas out of English muffin dough that didn't rise high enough (perfect size pizza), some carrots sticks and a homemade granola bar.
In my quest to give them healthy lunches I came across this site that give hundreds of ideas for lunches. I thought I would share with you...and hopefully you might get inspired like me.
Happy Healthy Lunches at:
