[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why?? Just pack a sandwich.  [/quote]

Our dinner leftovers are healthier than a sandwich and it’s easier to put a Pyrex container in the microwave and then put the food in a thermos than to make a sandwich. [/quote]

Exactly, my kids love leftovers of our healthy dinners (stews, pasta/rice dishes, etc.) and it's no more trouble for me to heat up leftovers than to pull out all the sandwich components. We use Thermos brand, too. I usually skip the hot water trick and just heat up extra hot. They tell me the food is still warm at lunchtime, but not hot. [/quote]

I dont know, sounds like a big pain to be boiling soup and boiling water to then thermos at 6am.  Im glad my kids will eat room temp food without complaint.[/quote]

I walk downstairs turn on the electric kettle, turn on the coffee maker and then take lunch and breakfast stuff out of the fridge. I prep breakfast or put snacks in lunch boxes and as soon as the water boils, I put the water in the thermos and the Pyrex in the microwave. (When we put away dinner we put the amount we need for kids’ lunches in a Pyrex that’s ready to go.) I dump the water out and add the food. Definitely easier than getting out sandwich ingredients, spreading, slicing, etc.  [/quote]
