This page is no longer updated because we moved to Italy and lunch is provided in Italian schools. Best thing ever!
Healthy lunch box ideas for the little people in your life. All recipes are easy to make, nutritious and have something from each food group – mostly! I have a link to recipes where I can.
At H’s school they don’t have morning tea but rather an early lunch, so although it looks like a lot of food for a 5 year old, he tells me this is the right amount for him. I also pack one piece of fruit for an afternoon snack.
His lunch box varies according to what he has for breakfast. He will most often alternate between: muesli with natural yoghurt, berries and seeds, egg omelette or chia pudding with fruit. If he hasn’t had fruit with his breakfast I will usually add extra to his lunch (because he loves it). If I have dinner planned and it contains some form of animal protein I will keep his lunch vegetarian.
