Hey reader!

A new school year is coming!

It's hard to believe it's already that time again, isn't it?

There are more than a few tasks that come with getting the kids ready to head back to class.

Figuring out what to put in their lunch boxes is one of them.

We all want our kiddos to have yummy meals they love.

But we also want to make sure their little bodies are getting the nutrients they need!

Luckily, the simple and healthy recipes below are kid-approved!

Healthy, Kid-Friendly Lunch Ideas

In addition to being healthy and delicious, these recipes are also EASY!

The less stress, the better, right? RIGHT!

Plus, you'll love them too... so go ahead and double (or triple) the batch!

This may sound more like a dessert, but our chunky peanut butter and banana sandwich will give your little ones the energy they need to get through the second half of the day!

Kids love mac and cheese, and this super simple recipe takes less than 20 minutes to make! And even better? It makes 8 servings so you get multiple meals out of it!

Honestly, this berry parfait is an awesome breakfast, but it's just as good at lunch time! Protein-rich yogurt, energy-boosting oats, and antioxidant rich berries make for one sweet yet healthy meal.

Need a way to get the kids to eat more veggies? We've found that the kiddos love these colorful and yummy wraps. You can swap in any veggies you'd like, or add some ham or turkey for a little extra protein!

This easy skillet pizza takes less than 10 minutes to make. Feel free to swap out the mushrooms and onions for pepperoni (or any other toppings the kids enjoy!) Then, slice it up, bag it up, and stick it in their lunch box!

Kids adore the ooey-gooey cheese and taco flavors in our southwest casserole. This is a recipe we love to enjoy for dinner, and then lunch the next day!

The creamy texture, tangy flavor, and nutty crunch of this recipe creates the perfect lunch time option. Pack it in a sandwich, with your child's favorite crackers, or maybe even slip in a few veggie sticks for dipping!

Which one of these recipes do you think your child will enjoy most?

What about you? Are you going to make any for yourself? 😀

If you do, be sure to share your thoughts with us in the comment section!

Enjoy!
