Easy and Delicious Back-to-School Lunch Ideas

As kids head back to school, we as parents must start thinking about what we want to pack in their lunches each day. Providing nutritious and delicious foods will help fuel their brains and keep them feeling energized. Not to mention, packing in those healthy and organic foods is beneficial as colds and other illnesses start to creep back into our households. Let’s look at some easy and delicious back-to-school lunch ideas that you can throw together using items found at your local grocery store in Vancouver.


Healthy Protein Skewers

Protein is essential for an active lifestyle. To make it more fun for your child to eat their lunch, consider using skewers! Stack on things like cubes of ham, grilled chicken breast, or turkey. Sneak in some veggies like cherry tomatoes or cucumber. Cheese cubes are another option for some additional protein. If your child likes to dip their food, you can include a small container of ranch or blue cheese dressing.


Wraps

You can get creative with the different items that can go in a wrap. Layer different meats and cheeses from a health foods store along with different greens like arugula, romaine lettuce, or spinach. Mayo is an option, but you can also try a spread of hummus.


Bento Boxes

Bento boxes are popular right now, not just for kids, but adults as well. Instead of packing one or two large items, you can include a variety of healthy foods that keep lunch interesting. Options include crackers, cheese cubes, lean meats, vegetable sticks and dip, fruit, etc. You can sneak in a small treat like cookies or fruit snacks without making this the main focus of the lunch.
