Back to School Lunches That Pack a Punch
My Daughters Favorite
Teaches and the lunch duty are always asking me to write this one down.It is so yummy and great for focus throughout the day.
Fage 2% plain Greek yogurt
2 tbsps. Flax seed
2 tbsps. Wheat germ
½ Cup of blackberries
Drizzle agave nectar over the top
Mix all together
Celery and peanut butter
Vegetarian Days
As a family we aren't vegetarians but enjoy many meals that way.This is a great one for kiddos that tend towards constipation, eczema or sensitive tummies.
½ Ezekiel pita bread
Fill with avocado and sea salt
Sliced red bell peppers
Hummus for dipping
Sliced apples sprinkled with cinnamon
Go Momma Go!NO PREP WHAT SO EVER!
Packaged foods can typically be so depleted in nutrients, not so with these two.A Occupational therapist friend of mine turned me on to the pistachios to help with my sons dexterity and penmanship.They are also great for the brain and shelling them slows the kids down a bit allowing time to socialize at lunch.Quick for momma, good for kids!
Organic Yo-Squeeze
Organic Apple Sauce
Sesame sticks
Pistachios
Meat Eaters Favorite
My son loves this lunch.When he was little he was convinced it made him kick the ball harder.It is protein packed and great for those growth spurts.
Roast beef or turkey rolled with organic cheese or organic cream cheese
Whole wheat peanut butter filled pretzels
Sliced strawberries
Dill Pickle
Traditional Sandwich Made for the Mind
Peanuts are grown in the ground high in good fats.This makes it an food that can store a lot of toxins.Go organic on this one and use a jelly that is sweetened with cane juice or organic sugar.
Organic peanut butter and jelly
100% whole grain, I like Rudys, bread
Tangerine
Carrot sticks with ranch dressing
