Lunch Ideas For Kids
BLUNCH aka Brunch for Lunch
BRUNCH dishes are widely loved by kids and adults alike. Often more substantial than breakfast, with sweet treats too, what’s NOT to like? This lunchbox addition, it’s all about BLUNCH – or BRUNCH for your kiddo’s lunch. Here are my top pics for a BLUNCH BOX, serve each of these alongside some fresh vegetables and fruit for an overall balanced, wholesome, healthy & kid approved meal.
BBQ Chicken and Mini Waffles
3-4 lightly toasted mini waffles
1 tablespoon mild BBQ Sauce spread on waffles
½ cup cooked chicken pieces on top
Mini Fruit Pizza
3 lightly toasted mini pancakes *
1 tablespoon cream cheese spread on pancakes
Mixed fruit on top
Huevos Rancheros
Scrambled egg
1 tablespoon mild salsa
1 tablespoon cooked black beans
1 teaspoon shredded cheddar cheese
1/8 avocado sliced topped with squeeze of lime juice to keep fresh and green
Healthy pita pocket filled with above, or serve open faced on top of pita or wrap*
*My favorite is Toufayan Bakeries Low Carb Pita, 9 carbs per pita (about half the carbs of most) and 7g fiber to keep you fuller for longer
