Healthy Lunches

As you know I'm trying to come up with some new healthy meals so I thought why not get creative with the kids lunches and make them neat and packed with foods they like yet also healthy. I have one child whom is a picky eater and one whom is a big eater he loves to eat. 

The first lunch is 
Grapes
1 boiled egg cut in half without the yolk
Natural applesauce
Ritz crackers 
Veggie/fruit Capri sun
Jelly rolls on whole wheat bread

The second lunch is

Grapes
1 boiled egg cut in half without the yolk
Natural applesauce
Ritz Crackers
1 can of Tuna in water with a little lite mayonnaise
Jelly rolls on whole wheat (smaller portion since he has tuna)
Veggie/fruit Capri sun 

•to make the jelly roll I cut the crust off of the bread, lay the bread on a paper towel, take a glass cup or a rolling pin and flatten the bread, spread on jelly/peanut butter/almond butter/Nutella whatever you prefer and then roll up the bread, slice the big roll. 1 slice of bread will make 4-5 smaller rolls.

These were a big hit with my kids they loved the entire meal. Although, you may want to warn your kid(s) that the boiled eggs will smell awful during lunch time! My oldest was embarrassed and didn't eat his eggs until he got home, haha! 

Enjoy!
