I find if I make little sandwiches my kids are more likely to eat them. If I pack a regular sized sandwich with crust (gasp!) they wouldn’t touch it. So I’d rather cut away some of the sandwich than have the whole thing go untouched. Here’s what I packed today: Whole Wheat Bread, Nitrate Free ham, Organic Cheese Hard Boiled […]
My kids are crazy about deer sausage. My husband is a hunter and gets us stocked up with lots of meat during deer season. I slice them up and pan fry them until they are a little crisp on both sides. This would work with whatever type of summer sausage you have on hand or even hot dogs. This […]

Some weeks I make a big batch of breakfast tacos and keep them in the refrigerator for a quick breakfast. They also make a really wonderful quick lunch item to have on hand. The cafeteria has a microwave so I wrap them in parchment paper for easy reheating at school. It’s always a fun treat to get to use the […]
I don’t know why I don’t do this more often. It’s so easy to make a panini and it elevates the sandwich into something special and different. This is what I packed today: Rudi’s whole wheat bread with Applegate ham & Organic Cheddar Cheese Celery & Cucumber Salad Sliced Oranges Spinach Fruit snacks Supplies used to pack […]
I can get away with putting spinach in my girls roll-ups but my son won’t have it. I made a nice romaine and carrot side salad with a squeeze bottle of vinaigrette. The squeeze bottle keeps the salad crunchy and adds fun!. Here’s What I packed: Rudy’s Spelt Whole Wheat Tortilla rolled with Applegate Farm Ham and organic shredded cheese and lettuce […]
My son has an obsession with soft tacos. He LOVES them. I use ground beef and add spices (Cumin, Coriander, Paprika, Oregano, S&P) add shredded cheese and wrap it up in a whole wheat tortilla. When I make tacos I’m sure to set one aside for his lunch the next day. Quick and easy and something the kid will actually […]
This is an easy lunch to throw together using what I had on hand today. The whole wheat pumpkin bread is something my kids LOVE so it’s a special treat for a lunch… and healthier than a cookie. Here’s What I packed: Ham and Provolone Rolled in a Whole Wheat Tortilla Whole Wheat Pumpkin Bread Rasberries and Blueberries Celery Banana […]
Both my kids elementary school and preschool require snacks to be nut free. I’m always looking for ideas of things I can send to change their snacks up. My son would want Cheese It’s and Jalapeno Chips everyday if he could (Gah!) so I have to stay on my toes and offer fun alternatives… Mini Bags of popped popcorn have […]
