Your
child decides that if he has one more tuna or ham sandwich
he is never going to eat another sandwich as long as he lives.
So what can you do for school lunches as an alternative to
the classic sandwich standby?
Switch to a
pita. The same fillings stuffed into a pita can turn a boring
sandwich into a unique and exciting lunch.
Send a piece
of pita along with a container of tomato or pizza sauce,
along with various veggie pizza toppings. It makes a fun
activity for lunch, and it is healthy.
Pack a thermos
with a favorite soup or stew
Make a fun sub
sandwich with a sub or a bagguette.
Make a sandwich
with rasin bread.
If
you bake your own bread, add food coloring to the ingredients.
Green or purple bread, even when you make it with whole wheat
flour, is suddenly interesting and exciting to eat for kids.
