Is there anything that you need……..that is the question I usually ask before leaving the house. I’m the shopper of the house I buy everything we need. Sometimes my husband does I bet of shopping but that’s usually when I’m sick or I just tell him to go get it. Anyways the point of this post is to gather up ideas for my daughters lunches and snacks at school.
I like to shop the perimeter of any grocery store, everything we like seems to be in the aisles but I’m trying to keep my family healthy. My daughter’s lunch box usually consist of turkey sandwich, granola bar ( no nuts ), apple, cheese, tomato and crackers of some kind along with water bottle. You might think that’s alot but she is in school for 6-7 hours twice week. The rest of the week the lunch is still the same. I give her alot of choices because most of the time she doesn’t eat what I give her. It must be a phase because she does eat but not as much as I would like. Getting back to shopping………. bread without nuts because that’s what she likes if she had it her way it would be white bread all day everyday ,yogurt pops I don’t really think they have much nutrition but my daughter loves them so I put those in her lunch. Cheese sticks are great for lunches along with crackers but my daughter doesn’t like cheese sticks. I’ve tried every kind of cheese stick but no luck. Lets be honest convenient food is not that great. I’d rather cut up cheese then give her those cheese animal cut outs from black diamond. Another one is fruit leather that is easy to throw into her lunch box but it doesn’t beat real fruit cut up. I’ve tried fresh fruit with yogurt dip but most of the time it comes back home because it had seeds or something. Well gotta go to the grocery store and get all the good intention foods for my daughter but will come out with all the horrible stuff that she will only eat.
