What’s for lunch?

Running out of ideas for the kids’ lunches?  I am.  I’m tired of packing the same thing every week and the kids are tied of eating it.  The last few weeks their lunch boxes have come home full. 

I’m pulling out a great resource I used at the beginning of the school year to inspire some creative new ideas and more variety.  I’m also breaking out the cookie cutters to keep things interesting. See below for my favorite lunch resource from Chef Ann Cooper, the Renegade Lunch Lady.  I keep this on my fridge and use it for lunches and creating grocery lists.  Do you have a helpful tool, trick or favorite lunchbox recipe?  Share it below.

      Sami – I left you a note on your blog, but love the homemade graham cracker idea. I’m inspired to treat the boys to smores if the weather holds out this week just so I can try them!

    The shocking state of school lunches has required me to prepare and pack healthy lunch box meals for my 3 kids since my oldest started preschool 15 years ago. Parents need a simple and affordable way to be sure their children will eat a healthy lunch, but we can’t wait around for the school districts to get that message. Our kids need good nutrition today! Packing a lunch box is the only sure solution available right now.
