      I Like a cold lunch on a warm day & my yogurt sundae hits the spot as well as provides me a good nutritional lunch. I freeze my favorite flavor of Greek yogurt to keep it cool till lunch in my insulated lunch bag. I also pack a small container of a fruit companion (also frozen, if possible).

      Then I have a small container of granola to top my yogurt. This is a very satisfying & filling lunch.

      My daughter thinks I am a lunch making rock star.
      1. peanut butter and jelly (I put a thin layer of peanut butter on both slices of bread to keep from getting soggy from the jelly)simple yes but I didn’t think of it (so sorry if you were smart enough to think of it)
      2. Power roll up, take tortilla (any kind I use wheat) spread with layer of peanut butter, sprinkle with raisins (craisins), granola.

      place a small banana in the middle and roll up, I slice it in half. It might not seam like much but it packs a punch, also good for breakfast. (very hearty)
      3. Nuttella and sliced banana on toast. (same rule as peanut butter)
      4.

      lunch meat roll up. Layer lunch meat on any flavor tortilla or wrap, add chopped lettuce (I like the salad mix with carrots, cabbage and what not.) shredded/sliced cheese. (mayo or dressing if they like) roll it up secure with toothpicks, slice in half.
      5.

      crazy sounding sandwich but she loves it, me too. bread, Colby cheese, bacon, baked turkey lunch meat, miracle whip, sliced granny smith apples(thin slices) (this is her special sandwich and considers it a treat)
      6 bacon sandwich, yes that is it, bacon on bread, I serve this only occasionally and send a hard boiled egg. Like breakfast for lunch.

      (humm, guess you could slice the egg on the sandwich?? wonder if she will eat it that way? or make it a BLT with sliced egg, something new to try) 🙂
      ** sides are the usual, fruits and veggies, however mine loves cherry tomatoes.

      She will also eat a salad, as long as I pack a container with dressing she likes.
