What in the world do you give little ones (3+) for lunch? We are running out of options!

If DD had her way, she would have a turkey sandwich every single day. She also likes PB&J, hot dogs, leftovers from dinner, anything with noodles, hummus, black bean and cheese burrito, quesadillas, chicken salad in pita bread or on crackers, chicken nuggets (Tyson makes a whole grain version) those are just a few off the top of my head.

grilled ham & cheese, hard boiled eggs, pasta with ground meat mixed in it, mac & cheese, hamburger, TJ mahi mahi burger, meatballs, yogurt, sliced avocado, peas, steamed carrots, english muffin pizzas (you can put whatever toppings your kid will eat and even have them make their own), leftover dinner.

We are pretty simple, I hate cooking lunch because I cook dinner so much.

- Mac n cheese and fruit

- ham/turkey sandwich with cheese, and fruit

- pb&j and fruit

- frozen chicken nuggets, cut up cheese, and fruit

- cheese, lunch meat, crackers

- cut up cheese, fruit, and bread with butter

- grilled cheese and fruit

- cheese qquesadilla

I guess I could have just said we have fruit every day with whatever else we're eating for lunch. Grapes, strawberries, apples, peaches, watermelon.

See my toddler doesn't like cold cuts or sandwiches. On weekends we do:

- rice, beans, and a meat like chicken and corn or avocado or another veggie.

- quesadillas she loves

- lots of plantains

- pasta w/sauce and/or meatballs

- The nanny makes a lot of chicken soups and she likes that

Leftovers such as mac n cheese/pasta or Graduates pasta

Lunch meat (rolled up), cheese & crackers (she won't eat a sandwich)

I always send at least one side (sometimes two depending on the size and ingredients in the main dish). For sides we will do a vegetable, a fruit or yogurt.
