Healthy Lunch Ideas For Back To School

Healthy lunch ideas for back to school! Can you believe it’s time to head back to the classroom? To help you get planning, here are nine fun food ideas for healthy lunches!

Hey everyone, it’s Bridget today!

I’ve got healthy lunches on the brain since my Kindergartener just had her first lunch at school today, normally she’s just half-day. {sniff}

Daily packing with healthy lunch recipes can be a challenge with three kids; and this time of year I feel almost out of ideas and I’m looking for some fresh inspiration for what to pack for lunch.

Kids eat better when they think it’s fun (even if it’s a green veggie!). And what kid doesn’t love to play with their food?! So I rounded up nine fabulous lunch box finds to share:

• Tasty Bugs via Nestle Kitchens are sure to have your kiddo bugging out when he opens his lunch box {smirk}
• String Cheese Pencils via Moneywise Moms are just “write” for any lunch box! I know, but I’m on a roll!
• Sick of sandwiches? Tortellini Salad via Parents is just one a long list of alternate lunch box ideas
• Last Day of School lunch via Bento-logy is a charming way to make an impression
• Owl Cookie Cutter sandwich via Cookie Cutter lunches will make any lunch a hoot! OK! I promise I’ll stop now

Sometimes a lunch box just needs a key snack or treat to make it exciting:

• Sticky Stacky Sandwiches via Super Healthy Kids is just a new twist on an old standby
• Cucumber and Hummus Cupcakes via Creative Kid Snacks is fantastic way to add some protein without meat…and it’s super cute!
• Lunchbox Planner via a Little Delightful is the perfect way to stay organized. Kids will eat better if they help plan, too
• MineCraft lunch via Bent on Better Lunches is full of (healthy) Creepers!

 

And since you’ve spent the time and energy to make a fun and healthy kid’s lunch, don’t forget to add a little note to your child’s lunch box. We gave these away at the beginning of the school year, but they’re great for the end of the year too!
