School Lunch Ideas
We know that sometimes making school lunches can require a little bit of creativity, especially for the picky eaters in your family. Turkey or ham and cheese roll-ups are a classic and simple choice for those kids who don’t like to go too far out on a limb when it comes to their food. Another great way to include meats and cheeses is by making meat and cheese kabobs. All you need is some meat, cheese, and toothpicks. This idea is great for those kids who need to have a little bit of fun while eating their lunch. Two other options for your children who like to try new and different things are hard-boiled eggs and pasta salad. These are fun and unique options that your kids will love.
