  Nothing too spectacular; it is usually leftovers from what she ate the night before.

  Thanks Sahara78, unfortunately my son rarely has leftovers. Haha

  If we don't have dinner leftovers, she almost always gets a sunbutter sandwich, or pita and hummus, with steamed veggies. I feel like I will have more options when she actually uses a fork and spoon.

  I usually cook up an extra chicken breast and use that for a couple days - mixed with rice or pasta or just on it's own. And then I cook up extra veggies at dinner to use in lunch the next day. 

  
  

  Other staples for us are: 

  Apple sauce (either homemade and mixed with a veggie like yams or the Motts Fruitsations cups)

  Cheese and crackers

  Rice crackers/cakes and hummus or cream cheese

  Berries (straw, rasp, blue)

  Chex

  
  

  
  

  I usually try to send one portion from each food group and then boost with whatever else I have on hand.

  H makes the lunches so I am honestly not entirely sure what she has everyday specifically.  Most of the time leftovers.  We also have these little chicken breasts in the freezer that take about 10 minutes to cook so if we don't have leftovers we make one of those. 

  This week I think she took a sandwich.

  Turkey meatballs/veggies
  Veggie burgers
  Sweet Potato patties
  Chicken Burgers/veggies
  Pasta or pasta salad
  mini turkey meatloaf made with sweet potato/applesauce
  Quesadillas with black beans/cheese
  DD won't eat sandwiches unfortunately, so I can't ever send them so I have a hard time of new things to send her in with
  I always send in a veggie & fruit with her lunch, usually mixed veggies or cucumbers cut up

  She loves filled tortelinnis or raviolis. I end up sending veggie filled ones 2-3 times a week. The kid can't get enough of them. Other than that, it is usually left overs.
  
  Then she gets 2 veggies. Last week it was zuchinni tots (weeliscious) and spinach muffins. Other times it is just carrots, peas, or corn. She gets a banana, yogurt, cheese, and some entries every day for other snacks.
