Melissa & Kelsey love popcorn and today for a bit of variety I popped it into a brown paper bag another cheap lunch box idea. The popcorn is air popped and drizzled with cold pressed olive oil and seasoned with some of Mary-ann's seasoning salt. I could pack a bag of popcorn everyday and my girls would love it but alas there would be no more inspirational ideas for the rest of you, so they generally have popcorn once maybe twice a week.Today they also had a box of CERES juice instead of there regular water bottle. I also packed in some shelled peas which I packed into plastic bank bags, some strawberries, orange segments and some raisins. (Opt for non-oiled raisins and check that they are preservative free).Return from Lunch Box Idea: Shelled peas and popcorn to the homepage.
Quick and easy lunchbox ideas: To replace the sugar laden version we baked some gluten free banana muffins. These look and taste almost like the real thing. They also freeze wonderfully and are great to have when you need a quick lunchbox filler. I also added some chopped papino, strawberries and fiji apples. Remember to send plastic spoons and colourful serviettes to school this all adds interest. Melissa and friends have daily lunchbox competitions to see who brings the most exciting lunchboxes to school, she always complains that she never wins these.... why do everyone elses children want to eat your childs lunchbox but not them?
