Back to School Lunches

It’s that time of year again when summer ends, and fall is around the corner. It also means back-to-school lunchtime!

I’m always looking for easy lunches I can make that are fast, easy, and nutritious for my two kids. These lunches will help you not be a slave in the kitchen and are easy.

Banana Muffins

This Gluten-free kid’s lunch idea is perfect and easy to make. I make this recipe with my kids all the time. Make them in the mini muffin maker to make them small and bite-sized for lunches. Get the recipe here

Breakfast Cookies

Serve these for lunch or pack them for school. These cookies use Epicure’s protein powder which gives them some protein they need to keep going all day. We use the wow butter for school lunches to keep it peanut free. Get the recipe here.
