Re: What are your

  • Breakfast-  cereal, toast with PB and greek yogurt are her staples.

    Lunch-  she's not a peanut free school, so lots of PB sandwiches. They're her favorite. She mixes it up with cheese sandwiches. Some of her favorite sides- greek yogurt, string cheese, pretzels, cheese its, raw veggies (she likes green pepper, red pepper, celery and cukes the most), fruit, pudding, ranch rice cakes.

  • Breakfast:  fried egg sandwich, soft-boiled egg & toast, oatmeal, fruit

    Lunch: sandwich (lunch meat or pb&j), fresh fruit (peaches/berries/apples in season; applesauce when nothing else is available), veggies (snap peas, carrots, cucumbers, edamame, peppers).

    I take the same thing for my lunch, but I keep humus at my school because I like to use it as veggie dip!

  • Breakfast: cereal, plain yogurt with fruit and honey, oatmeal in the winter

    Lunch: we're a completely nut-free school, so we do a lot of cheese and veggie combinations - his favorite is mozzerella cheese with cherry tomatoes. Lately I've been sending green monster smoothies with greek yogurt for extra protein, so it's been a big smoothie, some rice cakes, and a fruit. We also do sun butter and jelly sandwiches, rolled up ham/turkey/cheese, cheese quesadillas, and mini pizzas.
