Back-to-School Lunch Ideas

It’s the season of freshly sharpened pencils and crisp fall mornings which means back to school for all the kids. We pack lunches for our kids every day and I try to switch up their lunches often while trying to keep them well-rounded. Whenever possible I like to pack their lunches the day before to insure they get a well-balanced and healthful meal.
I like to use these inexpensive Ziploc Containers for the boy’s lunches.
Here are a few of our favorite school lunches:

Hummus, Chips, and Vegetables

Crackers, Cheese, Pepperoni

Mini Waffle Sandwiches

Turkey Cheese Roll-ups

Sandwich Kabobs
What are your favorite make-ahead school lunches?
We like to add Juicy Juice drinks to their lunches for a fun, refreshing drink option. Juicy Juice has 3 new innovative drinks Juicy Waters, Juicy Protein with added whey protein, and Juicy Juice Fruitful Organic with added vitamin C. These better-for-you options are packed with benefits and that great juicy flavor and as always they contain no added sugar, no high-fructose corn syrup, and no artificial sweeteners.
