There is a plethora of information out there on healthy snacks to consider adding to the school (or office) lunch box. BUT, the snack is only worthy of lunch box space if your kid, or you, are willing to eat it! Here are a few tried and true snack options that you can consider:
- Hummus with pita chips, celery sticks, or carrot sticks
- Popcorn
- Frozen grapes
- Yogurt parfait
- Yogurt dipped strawberries with granola sprinkles
- Apples and peanut butter
- Yogurt covered pretzels
- String cheese
- Cookie Dough Snack Balls
- Hard boiled egg
- Dried fruits
I also found some great ideas for sandwich-free lunches here, because the same old sandwich can get pretty boring after a while! My favorite is the bread-less sandwich rolls. What a fun way to eat lunch meat!
