[quote=Anonymous] My 8 yo's school does not serve food so we pack every day. I have found that keeping it simple is best and easiest! Dc has a plastic bento box from Walmart (so if it gets lost/ruined, I'm not out $$$). It fits in the lunchbox walmart sells right next to it lol. Anyhow, I typically do a protein, a fruit/veg, a grain, a treat and a snack. So, it might be leftover chicken cut up (or cut up nuggets work too), strawberries, goldfish, a few fig newtons, and a granola bar or cheese stick for snacktime. Essentially, something from each group I listed. My kid does not like much variety so we tend to stick with one thing for a few weeks at a time. But I keep it simple and don't pack stuff that needs dips or sides or utensils. I make sure to have items for the week ahead's lunches by sunday night. I also have the bento box clean and ready the night before (I also fill the water bottle and put in fridge) so in the morning it's pack and go.[/quote]
