We are trying to keep lunches healthy for the kids by packing them. But my little brother WILL NOT eat a sandwich. He eats about everything, he's not too picky, but he won't do a sandwich. Any ideas for a kids lunch?

    How about packing meat and cheese with wheat crackers
    fruit and veggie sticks with a juice or milk.


    I pack my 13 year old
    peanut butter and apples
    meat and cheese sandwich
    carrots sticks
    almonds
    a pudding
    Water and juice

    He eats all of it and is still ready for more. He eats like a man.

    Soup in a thermos? My five year old likes it and it gets her out of a rut.

    Our school's here in Ontario are peanut and nut free (thank goodness, cus my daughter is allergic to peanuts). I started off by sending her slices of lunch meat, turkey or honey ham because she didn't want sandwhiches either. Eventually (about 4 months later), I was able to add the bread to it. Sometime I use rye bread without crusts, or tortilla shells.
    I've also sent her pasta in a thermos, whole wheat crackers, cheese and cubed meat like ham or pepperoni or even boiled eggs.

    Good luck because I know it could be challenging.
