Fresh Ideas for lunchboxes!

Okay, so by now, you've probably noticed that I also have a little bit of a control problem, even when it comes to my kids lunches.

I'm trying to change, but old dog, new tricks... you get the picture...

Today, I would like to discuss a little about things OTHER than sandwiches for lunch boxes.

There are a plethora of foods out there, totally appropriate for lunch that don't involve bread or lunch meat! My kids have access to a microwave for their lunch, so we add lots of hot stuff from home too, but if your kids don't have that access, then below is a great alternative.

So here goes!

Sliced Cheese and apple slices

Tuna and crackers

Pasta Salad

Macaroni Salad

Fruit Salad and Yogurt dressing

Chicken Salad in lettuce cups

Apple's and Peanut Butter

Fruit N Cheese Kabobs

Pita Sandwiches

Mini Pita Sandwiches

and on and on and on!

The tuna recipe is in a previous post. My family loves my macaroni and Pasta Salad recipes too.

What I love about them, is the amount of veggies you can add, and they last about a week in the fridge covered. The boys just take what they want in a container and cover it up for another day that week.

Recipes for those two salads in the next post!

Ciao!
