  1. peanut butter and nutella sandwiches


  2. Avocado salad made with cucumber, carrots, cauliflower, and mushrooms is a tasty filling for pita bread.

    Prep Time: 20 minutes

    Ingredients:

    1 avocado, halved and peeled

    1/2 cup chopped cucumber

    1/2 cup chopped carrot

    1/2 cup chopped cauliflower

    1/2 cup cubed Monterey Jack cheese

    1/4 cup bottled Italian dressing

    4 pita breads

    1 teaspoon lemon juice

    1/2 cup chopped tomato

    Preparation:

    Dice half the avocado. Reserve other half.

    Gently toss diced avocado, cucumber, carrot, cauliflower, mushrooms, and cheese with Italian dressing.

    Slit pita breads and separate halfway around by pulling edges apart to form a pocket. Fill each with 1/4 of the mixture.

    Mash remaining avocado with fork and stir in lemon juice and tomato. Spoon inside each sandwich.

    Yield: 4 pocket sandwiches

  4. For my kids, ages 15, 12, and 5, I make their sandwiches or wraps the night before. Things like this:

    Spinach tortilla with ham, swiss cheese, fresh spinach leaves and a dash of honey mustard

    Small sub bun with big pepperoni or hard salami and a slice of mozzarella and thin slice of tomato with a mixture of mayo and bit of Italian dressing

    For my little son, peanut butter and banana on whole grain bread.

    Add:

    a container of yogurt

    a container of applesauce for my little son

    a ziploc of Chex mix -- I make a big batch and divide it up on the weekend so it's as easy as grabbing the bag from the cupboard

    sometimes a piece of string cheese

    for a drink, I fill their water bottles 1/4 full at night and freeze them, then use them in the lunch containers as an ice pack. At lunch they fill them with water from the fountain and add a Crystal Light single.

    We need new thermal containers but when I get some I will sometimes microwave two hotdogs until they are really hot, stick them in the thermos, wrap up a couple of whole grain buns separately and stick in restaurant packs of ketchup, mustard and relish.

    I also make banana, zucchini, pumpkin, lemon blueberry, etc. bread or snack cake for their dessert ahead of time, slice and put in individual ziplocs and freeze. Take one out and it's ready by lunch.

  5. Soup in a thermos

    Dip with veggies or fruit  (Dips to go with veggies could be cheese, sourcream or bean based.  Dips with fruit might be cream cheese or sour cream based)

    Cream cheese/jelly spread for crackers or pita bread  Just mix some softened cream cheese with a favorite jelly.  (My kids like homemade peach wine jelly with cream cheese)

    Crackers and cheese with accompanying fruits

    I'm assuming you mean lunches giving you a normal change from sandwiches....


  6. you can prepare a lot a head of time to make cooking time quiker, stir-fry cut veggies and cook rice a head of time  then when they get home just cook meat and heat the rest up. stew cook it all the night befor and let it simmer untile lunch the next day, I think you get the idea

  7. A few packs of Lunchables!

  8. Ofcourse many I'm almost certain that some  might say things like Deli meat to make sandwhiches !?! .,. Grilled cheese sandwhiches,various sandwhich meets such as ham , turkey... etc...  Oh & if at all possible. Try finding out / asking the cooking staff !?! THE ONE that's most cool among the rest of the staff if they'll  !?!... Oh wait this is the future of shool luches that I've heard so0O much `bout how diFFeRenT/updated / better!?! school lunches are supposed to get in the future !! !?! "BUY something from the school's vending machines & I'll bet they have a microwave so you'd be able to NUKE it !! so you can [hurry] up  & go to some class ! ? !  ;-/ rRr
