This post is actually the combination of two weeks. Last week I did lunch almost every day, except for one because I had to be at work super early so Eric did it, and the week before that I only made lunch once since I was traveling.

I’ve gotten really good at predicting what Jack will eat, and what he’ll leave behind. For instance, every time I give him carrots, he will not remotely touch them. Also if the seeds are too big on the strawberries, or if the strawberries are mushy even in the slightest, he won’t eat them. I’m still really enjoying packing his lunches though, and I love the pictures of them!

Vegetarian School Lunch Ideas

Snack

• Applesauce
• Mozzarella Stick
• Annie’s Cheddar Bunnies

Lunch

• Veggie Bologna on a Whole Wheat Sandwich Thin – He only ate the veggie bologna
• Yogurt Drink
• Shredded Carrots – He didn’t even touch these, I thought I was so clever shredding it. In the past he said he didn’t eat the carrots because they were too crunchy, so I figured shredding them would make them less crunchy. Apparently it did not. 
• Mini Oreos

Snack

• Vanilla Quick Bread // Food Network – This is the fourth quick break I’ve made so far, and he loved it. 
• Organic yogurt tube
• Cheddar Fish Crackers – I would rather my kids eat Annie’s Cheddar Bunnies, even though they are more expensive, but Eric buys the huge jug of fishes, and my kids are obsessed. 

Snack

Lunch

• Leftover Pasta – I love having leftovers for lunches, basically I have half of my work done before the next day even starts!
• Carrot stick – You guessed it, he didn’t touch them!
• Veggie turkey J’s – I thought this was super cute, I’m not sure Jack noticed, lol.
