Healthy Lunch Ideas – It Could Be Easier To Feed Your Kids Than You Think

Coming up with healthy lunch ideas for your kids could be far easier on you than you think…

* Step 1: Get a decent lunch box. This sounds silly but it makes all the difference in the world - get a lunch box with compartments. Bento boxes are huge right now, but you do not have to go with a brand, just something with compartments. The key is being able to divide everything up and getting into a formula. Main meal, something sweet, some veggie sticks with a dip and a piece of fruit.

* Step 2: Be kind to yourself and be as simple as possible. Choose things like ranch dip or cucumber and yoghurt that you can be made a few days before hand and just need veggie sticks added. Pre cook some chicken breasts to use for your tortilla wraps. The key is not putting pressure on yourself in the mornings. Make things that can be pre-prepared or take very little effort.

* Step 3: Try and choose things that the kids can help make! Obviously this is not something to be done first thing in the morning, but there is no reason why your little ones cannot help packing their lunch boxes the night before. I mentioned tortilla wraps and they are perfect for this! Just add some chicken breast, ranch dressing, lettuce and tomato and get your kids to roll it together, loads of fun! Another great option is pita bread. Again, all they need to do is be stuffed and kids love that!

So take these healthy lunch ideas and run with them!
