In our house, we pack a lunch almost every day.
While I could go into the ins-and-outs of why I put my child through the SUPER HARD TASK of packing her lunch (oh, wait. that is just what she says to me every morning), it comes down to one thing…controlling what foods go into her little body.
While we still follow the rules from Master Making Lunches To Take To School, we also constantly look for easy-to-pack alternatives to sandwiches.
(because goodness knows, you can only eat a nut butter and jelly sandwich for SO long…)
So when Door to Door Organics asked me to create three affordable quick easy organic school lunches, I jumped at the chance.
Items of note:
- I used the Rubbermaid LunchBlox Sandwich Kit. It’s an amazing deal considering you get one big, one medium, and two smaller containers, plus ice pack.
- All of the lunches are made with either pre-packaged or pre-made items from the Door to Door Organics School Lunches Made Easy site. So it truly is, grab, dump, and go.
- Our standard school lunch is $2.55. And while I understand these lunches are more expensive, the fact that it is less than double for a completely organic lunch (that is grab-and-go) is an awesome value.
Quick Easy Organic School Lunches
Lunch #1 – Eat Like a Bunny
Items included:
Organic Rainbow Carrots
Hope Original Flavored Hummus
Annie’s Bunny Fruit Snacks
Yummys Choice Falafel Pieces
Honest Kids Organic Tropical Tango Punch
Total Cost: $4.57
Why I love this lunch idea…
It’s organic. It’s vegetarian. And it’s super filling. Plus, this is truly one of the easiest lunches to put together. Outside of putting the hummus into a container with a spoon, it was literally grab and go.
Lunch #2 – The Caveman
Items included:
Organic Prairie Roasted Turkey Breast
Organic Valley String Cheese (cut in thirds)
Woodstock Farms Whole Raw Cashews
Honest Kids Organic Tropical Tango Punch
Total Cost: $4.69
Why I love this lunch idea…
Sometimes you have a kiddo that NEEDS protein. Lots of protein. This lunch fits this need. Cut your string cheese into thirds and wrap with one to two pieces of lunchmeat.
Lunch #3 – All About the Fruit
Justin’s Classic Almond Butter Squeeze Pack
Pink Lady Apple
Rawxies Lemon Poppy Seed Bars
Annie’s Bunny Fruit Snacks
Honest Kids Organic Tropical Tango Punch
Total Cost: $6.31
Why I love this lunch idea…
This lunch is deceiving. Kiddos believe they are getting the mother load of snacks. {enter maniacal laugh} But the 7 grams of protein from Justin’s Almond Butter combined with the 3 grams of protein and dietary fiber from the Rawxies make it a super filling lunch.
