Packing School Lunches: Our Top Tips

Streamline the process of packing school lunches with these tried and tested tips:

  • Plan ahead! Meal prep is your best friend when it comes to packing a week of school lunches. Create a meal plan ahead of time, do your grocery shopping over the weekend and spend 30 minutes prepping on a Sunday (eg: chopping veggies or making a batch of muffins) to set you up for success.

  • Keep it balanced. The ideal lunch box should include a good mix of fruit and veg, protein, carbs and healthy fats. This will ensure your kids are getting the nutrients they need, while also helping them stay full for longer.

  • Stock up on staples. Make sure your pantry, fridge and freezer are stocked with staple ingredients, so you always have something handy. Read our guide on the best lunch box staples to keep in your kitchen here.
  • Make it easy to eat. Steer clear of messy foods and instead opt for snacks and lunches that are easy for your kids to eat - so they can spend more time playing!
