Making lunches can be stressful with today’s hectic schedule. Here are some tips we found on Buzzfeed.com to help with the process:
- A great idea from Money-Saving Mom: These will keep just fine for about 4-6 weeks. Just take one out of the freezer in the morning, pack it, and it will be thawed and ready to go by lunch time.
- Put a rubber band around a sliced apple to keep it from turning brown.
- Freeze drinks the night before and they’ll double as ice packs.
- Fill up reusable food pouches with homemade smoothies.Try some of these easy smoothie recipes or just mix up whatever fruit, yogurt and juice you have around. Fill up a bunch at once and fridge or freeze until you’re ready to use.
- Use cookie cutters to cut sandwiches into fun shapes (and get rid of crusts).
- Always slice diagonally.Science says. Don’t question it.
- If your kids aren’t into sandwiches, try skewers.
