Time-Saving School Lunches That Aren’t Ham and Cheese

DIY Lunchables

Banana, Peanut Butter and Honey Burritos

Mix up your kid's go-to PB&J sandwich by transforming the classic into a rollup. If your child doesn't dig bananas, you can also use sliced strawberries or grapes. Drizzle on the honey and roll up your tortilla or favorite flatbread.

Pinwheel Lollipops

There is something about toothpicks or skewers added to food that makes kids feel all giddy inside. Make some pinwheels using your kid's favorite sandwich mix-ins wrapped in a tortilla. Then cut it into bite-size pieces and stick it with a toothpick or a small skewer to make sandwich lollipops.

Breakfast for Lunch

Why make two meals, when you can just make one in the morning? Serve your child a lunch box full of breakfast favorites like a hard-boiled egg, dry cereal, fruit and homemade or store-bought waffles. Turn a regular Wednesday lunch into a funday brunch!
