Day Care- lunches?

lewispmlewispm member
in July 2012 Moms

What do ya'll pack for lunches for LO at daycare? K will be starting soon and I have no idea what to make him! No peanut products are allowed, but they do have a fridge and a microwave available. It has to be foods that are easy to eat and they request non-messy items. Everything is messy when Kellen eats it!

I need some major ideas! Thanks!

    I have sent a variety of steamed veggies, turkey nuggets, pasta, black bean quesadilla, chicken and rice, and yogurt.

    Daycare provides lunch, but when I do take B's, here are some things: grilled/baked chicken, grilled cheese sandwich, ravioli (Gerber makes a few different flavors w/o sauce and I keep some in his cubby), pork tenderloin (leftovers), cheeseburger patty, meatloaf, chicken & cheese quesadilla, chicken nuggets.  I do steamed veggies with each lunch.

    They probably mean messy as in sauces, etc. because kids inevitably get stuff everywhere.

    yup, day care gives them lunch, but you could do mini meatballs, pasta, grilled cheese, chicken nuggets, even leftovers.

    but personally I would send food in a glass Tupperware if they are going to be heating anything up.

    Thanks guys! I guess I need to start planning meals in advance a little better. I have really been flying by the seat of my pants lately when it comes to meals, but obviously that won't work for much longer. The quesadillas are a great idea I never would have thought of. Thanks for all the suggestions! I'm off to make a grocery list... :)
