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. If your kids are anything like mine, they probably get bored of the typical turkey sandwich every day. Who can blame them! Healthy, quick, and filling are my top priorities when I’m packing a lunch. These three recipes have been consistent in our lunch rotation, so you know they’re good!
