We’re a month into the back to school rush and if you’re anything like me, you’re finally able to take a breath. The change from summer to school has always been a big one for me and now that I’ve got two with after school activities and homework and one in tiny diapers, life is busier then ever! If there’s one thing that makes life easier, it’s simple school lunch ideas to pack meals for Kenya and Chloe.
There are tons of school lunch inspiration ideas in the Weelicious Lunches cookbook or you can check out some of the images below that I’ve made for the kids over the past few months. If you’re looking for the easy to pack and clean container I pack their lunches in you can find it here. Let me know in the comments below if any of these recipe ideas have been popular with your family!

Hi just to ask. Where do you get the metal tray?
These look great, but most don’t seem to have much protein… Do you have any suggestions for adult lunches with protein that is vegetarian that doesn’t contain pb, nut butter, or sunbutter? (a tall order…) 🙂 thanks!
The container is a PlanetBox.
I love looking at your lunches. If you came out with a picture book with most of the lunches you have made, I’d buy it (if it wasn’t too expensive).
