Your Back-to-School Lunch Cheat Sheet
It’s back-to-school season!
To make the job a bit easier for you, Kraft Foods has published a quick cheat sheet of what to put in your little one’s lunchbox:
- Place a frozen juice box in your kids’ lunchbox. – it’ll keep the food chilled and will be thawed by lunchtime.
- Go for variety. Make sandwiches using whole grain tortillas, bagels or pitas.
- Pack antibacterial wet wipes so your kids can clean their hands before and after eating.
- Add grated veggies to sandwiches and wraps for crunch – your kids won’t notice they’re eating something that’s good for them!
- Use small resealable bags to pack dressings. Kids can open one corner and simply squeeze onto salad, then discard.
- Get dipping! Pack salsa, hummus, yogurt or salad dressing for your little ones to dunk their sandwich, veggies or fruit into.
- Make bite-sized and mini versions of regular foods like sandwiches. They work well for small appetites and are more likely to be eaten.
- Add a quick note to say good luck on a test or “I love you” – it will brighten your child’s day.
