Back to school season is upon us and while I am looking forward to some routine, I am not looking forward to the lunch making. I am too tired to make lunches at night which leaves me doing it first thing in the morning. While I am drawn to those fun bento boxes with fruit cut into pretty shapes and beautifully curated sandwich squares, I just don’t have that kind of time. I have 4 kids with 4 different preferences and needs. Plus, I don’t want to spend hours putting together lunches. I have put together a list of main courses below. But I find Pinterest has the most comprehensive list of ideas, don’t worry, no crazy food shapes. Check out my Pinterest board HERE (don't worry - no crazy fruit shapes)
