Tasty and Organic Lunchbox Ideas


As a little girl, I remember getting SO excited when my mom packed me special lunches to bring to school. Now with my son starting preschool next fall (where did the time go?) I want to share that same excitement with him. But even more importantly than packing special lunches, starting at a young age, I want to teach him the importance of smart eating habits. Enjoy delicious and unique lunch options with these tasty and organic lunchbox ideas.

I received samples and compensation in exchange for this post. All opinions are my own.聽

Tasty and Organic Lunchbox Ideas

Ham and cheese roll-ups: Wrap your favorite kind of lunch-meat around a cheese stick. You can also substitute the string cheese for cream cheese. Both options are delicious!

Olives and carrots: Cut carrots in half and stick them through whole olives. The presentation alone always gets my son to eat his veggies.

Mini fruit kabobs: Create mini fruit kabobs by stringing your favorite fruit on toothpicks.

Yogurt and granola: Made with soy, Silk Dairy-Free Yogurt Alternative, is packs full of delicious fruity flavors. Add a spoonful of granola for an extra crunch.

Sack Grahams: Made with 8g of whole grains per serving, Horizon’s Snack Grahams add the perfect organic side to any lunchbox. Not only is the cinnamon flavor a family favorite, but these Snack Grahams are pretty filling. Plus, it’s pretty cute when my son calls them “yummy cow cookies”.

Chocolate Milk: Nothing beats washing a tasty lunch down with Horizon’s Organic Chocolate Milk. Horizon’s Organic Milk is also available in vanilla, strawberry, and low-fat milk.

Best of all, you can find these tasty organic options in the organic section of your local Kroger store. Heading to my local Fry’s, I was amazed at the organic selection – I mean look at all of these yummy options.

With delicious snacking options such as organic fruit snacks, milk, yogurt, and crackers, organic lunchbox options are endless.

  1. These are great lunch ideas. They look like lunches kids will actually eat but you’re sneaking in the health aspect too.

  2. Thanks for the ideas. I’m trying to conceive now and already kind of worried about what I’ll feed my kids.

  3. This year my kids are actually eating at school. I would like to make this lunch for myself. I love fresh fruit and veggies for my lunches.

  4. I try to do as much organic as I can too. Shopping sales and having great brands definitely makes a difference in school lunches

  5. A great lunch… both my kids would gobble all of it down. Our two are heading to middle school so I am for sure looking for new ideas to send with them.

  6. This definitely seems like the type of lunch I would pack for my children and one I would appreciate having myself as well. The fruit kabob idea looks super fun!

  7. These are great ideas. My son always wants lunch meat and cheese for lunch. I also throw in some fruit.

  8. My kiddos get such big lunches I need to start planning like yesterday. ugh. I love doing bento style lunches for them and keeping it fun and healthy.

  9. My son would love it if I put some chocolate milk in his lunch! I think I will try that 馃檪

  10. Wow I am jealous of your kids! They are so lucky to have a mum that puts such effort into these amazing lunches!
