Heidi – my pleasure. Anything to help a fellow mom in the morning. (I am NOT a morning person myself)

I found that especially when dear son was little that anything that could be dipped was considered fun and would be eaten. So consider sending a little container of….
YOGURT w/fruit to dip in it;
HUMMUS w/carrots, celery sticks, peppers, cucumbers, etc.;
RANCH DRESSING, w/ cherry tomatoes, various veggies,
PIZZA SAUCE with pepperonis, bread sticks, bow tie pasta,
CREAM CHEESE w/bagel bits, veggies,
CREAM CHEESE w/ BROWN SUGAR, apples

do your kids like hard boiled eggs? Super easy to do the night before. Then in the morning, just peel and put in the box for a great source of protein.

Great ideas – all of which would also be really good on a tortilla (whole wheat or white)…then roll, pack in lunchbox and go!

My struggle with sandwiches is bread that gets soggy In fact, I usually do everything except the sandwich/starch the night before. These sure are great ideas, and I’m going to give them a try – in their lunches and in mine!

If only my kids would eat any of those options! My daughter won’t even eat BREAD so I have to be extra creative just to get something in her tummy. Not fun!
