Need Lunch Ideas?

 
Posted by Christy AuneApprentice Wednesday, February 10 2010 1 comments

Now that the kids are back in school after the holidays, has the stress to find daily lunch packing ideas returned?  Are your kids tired of the same old sandwich and are you fresh out of ideas?  What's a busy mom to do?  Don't worry, we have plenty of ideas to jazz up your kids' lunches and make your life easier and greener. 

Let 2010 be the year of green, waste-free lunch packing.  While you can always put your child's lunch items into Ziploc baggies, you can also take an easy step to save money and cut down on the trash being hauled to our landfills by simply using the Kids Konserve reusable Food Kozy.  The Food Kozy is an innovative and non-toxic solution that can help you eliminate your plastic baggie, saran wrap, and foil addiction, while giving you the flexibility you need for all your lunchtime creations.

        

Top 20 Food Kozy Lunch Packing Ideas: 

  Open faced brie cheese and granny smith apple slices on slice of sourdough bread

  Tomato and bacon grilled cheese sandwich

  Turkey, provolone rolled up in whole wheat tortilla

  Peanut butter and banana slices on cinnamon raisin bagel

  Deli tower: chunk of salami, chunk of cheese with a side of crackers

  Kid Friendly Burrito

  Tuna in a pita with grape tomatoes

  Canned or shredded chicken, mayo, halved purple grapes on a blueberry bagel

  Cream cheese and jelly cracker sandwiches

  Baked ham and cheese quesadillas

  Waffle sandwich: two frozen waffles defrosted with peanut butter and carob chips

  Pita Pocket Caesar

  Hummus and thin layer of sliced cucumber on lavosh layered in a stack

  Cream cheese and cinnamon bread

  California Veggie Wrap

  Pizza slice

  Chicken fingers (use a Kids Konserve mini container for honey dipping sauce or
         ranch dressing)

  Pita Pizza

  Taquitos (use a Kids Konserve mini container for salsa)

  Bagel sandwich (get creative with different spreads: garden veggie, garlic herb,
         strawberry, smoked salmon)

And, in the kitchen the Food Kozy is great for storing blocks of cheese in your refrigerator; halves of cucumber, bell peppers, and other veggies that you may normally wrap in saran wrap or put in a ziploc bag.  To put over a bowl for storage rather than saran wrap, place the Food Kozy over the bowl and secure with a rubber band.  Endless reusable options!

Kids Konserve Food Kozy is a reusable alternative to plastic baggies, plastic wrap and foil. Recycled, FDA approved, non-toxic, non-leaching, recyclable PE plastic. This product does not contain Bisphenol-A (BPA) and is Phthalate free. 13.5" round.

    These are some great suggestions for lunch ideas. I recently bought the lunchbot stainless steel containers which work really well, although a bit pricey. The idea of the food cozy is great. I think I will make myself one at home with some remanent cloth and velcro. Thanks!
