Healthy Lunch Box Ideas

One day I was mentally counting up how many lunches I packed for my daughter and when I got to over 1000 and had only estimated up to 6th grade - well I had to stop. What today?! Parents, workers and caregivers are always on the lookout for new ideas. We get it. And we’ve got some good ideas to share. Tucking leftover grilled chicken or pan-fried tofu, fresh herbs and vegetables and/or beans into a tortilla or a spring roll wrapper make a quick and delicious alternative to sandwiches. I can show you how in this Full Circle video Fresh Avocado Spring Rolls. There’s a nice bunch of suggestions below in these three videos. For even MORE (like a bazillion more) checkout our friends at Laptop Lunches. Click to see their fall collection. Below are three Cookus Interruptus favorites. |

Thank you for this timely post! My daughter and I have been going back and forth on how to pack a lunchbox that she’ll actually enjoy. Going to share this with her, and we’re going to plan the menu together.
