Three Lunchbox Ideas for Back to School

Can you really ever have too many kids lunch ideas?! With everyone going back to school, I’ve been breaking out some old favorite recipes along with new ones I’ve been wanting to try out.

These three recipes have been consistent in our lunch rotation, so you know they’re good!

GAME DAY HATFIELD NACHOS

It’s that time of the year again, which means it’s time to grab your friends and family and celebrate the big game! Over the weekend, we had a Big Game party! From nachos to pigs in a blanket and cheese boards to baked beans, our party had it all! The hero of our party was hands down the Game Day Hatfield Nachos. Aimery would have eaten the whole plate if I let him!
