First set of school lunch ideas.

Please let me know if you have any comments or suggestions for this blog. I can provide recipes for muffins and quinoa salad, if requested.

 

Lunch (top): Tortilla scoop chips, vegetable straws (from Costco), hummus, cucumber, carrots and radishes. My grade one son ate most of this, but left some of the vegetables.

Snacks (bottom): apples (core removed with shape cutter) with no lemon juice, because it tastes yucky to my kids, and cheese crackers.

Inspired by: apples slices

 

Lunch: Tortilla scoop chips, shredded cheese, frozen peas and radishes. My grade one son left the vegetables, but did eat some of them when he got home from school. I'd like to included shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes, like the one under "Inspired by", but my son won't eat that... yet.

Three school lunches! Husband on left, Grade one son in middle, and JK daughter on right.

Lunch: crackers, cheese, kielbasa (son only), mostly-healthy banana chocolate chip muffins, quinoa salad and strawberries.

I wrote nicknames and pics with a dry erase marker on the lids.
