Good Eats at Back To School Time

There are many ways that you can make going back to school special. Some of the great ways to celebrate going back to school is through food. Whether it be a special breakfast, lunch, night before meal or a special after school snack they can all be very special.

Prepare a special breakfast whether it is something that they choose or something special that you choose. Choosing their favorite breakfast to prepare the morning of the first day of school to make it a special back to school day you will want to make a plan and have plenty of time. A filling breakfast and a note of encouragement can get the day and school year started off right

Packing up a special lunch for the first day can be fun as well. Include a special note to encourage your student in with the healthy meal.

• Making lunches at night instead of in the morning is a great idea on those days that you are running short of time.
• Good way to keep sandwiches fresh is to place the cheese slices directly on the bread then top with any condiment you choose 

Here is one of our favorite lunch box ideas. What is yours?? 

 Bagel thins or Bread rounds (either is a great option)
 Pepperoni or Salami
Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Favorite pre-made pizza or marinara sauce
Grapes


When our children arrive home they are often full of excitement from the days activities, may be a bit worn out from getting back into routine and  often hungry as well. One fun snack that is easy to prepare is s'mores pudding cups.

Mix miniature marshmallows and broken graham crackers in your favorite chocolate pudding cup.
