Healthy Lunch Ideas for Kids! (Part 1)
Are you looking for some healthy lunch ideas for kids? Let me help give you a couple!
This whole week I will be sharing some “healthier” options for lunches for kids , and a few of them you may even like yourself!
Today Ill start with a fun series I did when I first started this website called the PB&J makeover! I took the basic idea of the peanut butter and jelly sandwich and made a couple of tweaks to it. At the time my son I think was basically living off of PB&Js! We had made a drastic change in our eating habits and he was the pickiest of my kids. It seemed like that was all he would eat with a huge battle so I just wanted to start to get him to see varity as a good thing.
*Just so you know he is now eating a large variety of things (for anyone who wants to know how we slowly changed his eating habits feel free to message me and we will chat!)

Peanut Butter and Jelly gets a healthier makeover!
This was a great way to get some extra fruit into your kids diet and lose some of the sugar in the jelly.
Peanut Butter Sushi was such a fun one for us and it let me sneak in some other really good stuff for him!
This one was such a fun and easy twist on not only the PB&J but also hot dogs!
This one was soooo good that even I enjoyed it! It gets a little messy at times enjoying this one but it is well worth it!
This is one of our favorite breakfasts but it is also a great lunch when you need something quick!
Of course in any of these recipes or ideas you could switch out the peanut butter and replace it with whatever nut butter you or your family likes. I hope I have given you some ideas for healthy lunch ideas for kids! Come back tomorrow and we will continue with part 2 of healthy lunch ideas for kids!
