The back-to-school season is in full swing, and in my neighborhood, the kids have been in school for a few weeks. You might have found me scrolling through Pinterest in August, exploring all<\/em> the creative lunch box ideas I was determined to implement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \ud83c\udf08 I assured myself I\u2019d have ample time to organize their organic rainbow carrots into art. However, reality set in really<\/em> quickly, and if you’re anything like me, those visions of perfectly organized, overflowing, and colorful lunchboxes tend to fade after about a Despite my love for going all out with lunches, I’ve discovered a way to streamline the process for my family. Some days, I can go above and beyond, which is excellent. But other days, my kids prefer whatever is in the lunch line. I don’t beat myself up about it either way since packing a plant based lunch<\/strong> without any animal products is already a feat of its own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I have three kids, each attending different schools. Honestly, my middle and high schoolers rarely want home lunch. But Brayden wants a packed lunch most of the time. So here are some of the easy plant-based lunch ideas<\/strong> I make for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\ud83e\udd52 I\u2019d carefully craft cucumber slices into a star shape.
\ud83c\udf53 I\u2019d make their jam from scratch every week.
\ud83e\uddc0 I’d never wish for something as quick as string cheese to toss in.
This year, my children would enjoy more than just a bland peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a browning slice of an apple. This year, my first grader, Brayden, would have the yummiest, healthiest, most time-consuming plant based lunchbox<\/strong> in the cafeteria! Then, I\u2019d pat myself on the back and give myself not one, but two, gold stars! \u2b50\u2b50\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nmonth<\/strike> week. I fell back into the school routine, realizing I was still overextended and perhaps overly concerned about every minor detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat I pack his plant based lunch in<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
