Lunch Box Meal Ideas For Your Kid's Lunch

If you create fun and funky lunches for your school going kids

, it can motivate them to actually eat their lunches. If you provide healthy foods for them at the same time, you have created great lunch box meal ideas. Add variety and a creative way of presenting the food to add interest. Little things can take lunch box meals from boring to exciting.

If your kids are tired of the plain old sandwiches, you can pack the ingredients for the sandwich in separate containers, and you can incorporate whole grain tortillas that have been cut up, cheese cubes, sliced deli meats and vegetable chunks. You can also include a dip for the veggies and the tortilla and round up this meal with fruit and some milk in a carton. You can even add pizzazz to this meal by skewering some ingredients on some toothpicks, so that you have lunch on a stick.

The sandwich can also be made different by rolling it up, and to do this you will first need to slice off the crusts, or you can use tortillas. Have the bread spread with the favorite filling that your child loves the most, and this may be tuna, cheese slices, boiled meat or even chicken. Once you have all the ingredients, you will roll up the sandwich and place it in your fridge to cool. To cool this rolled up sandwich even faster you can place it in the freezer for about thirty minutes. The next thing is to cut the sandwich into one inch slices and then place the pinwheels that you have created into your kid's lunchbox.

Salads are also a novel idea, and although your child may turn up their nose at having a salad for lunch, you can make it more appealing by basing the salad on pasta, rice or potatoes. Add a bit of mayonnaise, vinegar or some oil, and also incorporate your child's favorite vegetables as well as some chicken, turkey and some cheese. This will provide your child with all the food groups in a single meal, as well as having something different for his or her lunch.

Another meal out of the ordinary is to make a mini pizza You can do this using English muffins, some mozzarella cheese and marinara sauce. You will need to bake this the night before so that you can have an easy morning the next day. Other healthy favorite foods are a chicken salad that is made using grapes and celery, and to make this sandwich you can use leftover chicken or turkey.

A bento box is a box that has been separated into different compartments. This box can help you to easily prepare an appealing meal for your child. This can be done by packing different types of food in each compartment. One of the great bento box lunch ideas is to pack a tuna wrap in one compartment, Asian noodles in another compartment and in the remaining two compartments you can pack some fruit and a healthy treat such as cookies in the other. You can make changes to the above suggestion to suit your child's favorite meals.

Think of creative ways to incorporate your child's favorite and healthy foods into their lunch box meals. They will love to eat their lunch and look forward to what you pack the next time.
