This page contains affiliate links. Thank you for your support of Prep Dish! Today’s episode is all about a much requested topic - easy kids lunch ideas. Prep Dish founder and mom of 2, Allison Schaaf, shares her go-to kids’ lunches. No kids? No problem, these work great for adults too! If you’re looking for easy, healthy kids lunch ideas, leftovers are one of the very best options! Double or even triple a dinner recipe to have on-hand for lunches. That said, you likely won’t always have leftovers on hand. These are some great choices when you need to cook up something quick: Proteins: Frozen Salmon (or any fish!) - Once it’s defrosted, it cooks so quickly Frozen Ground Meat - Use for tacos, burgers, meatballs, etc. Frozen Chicken Wings - I get these from Imperfect Foods. Wings cook so quickly and my kids love them! Veggies: Salad Green Beans Cucumbers Zucchini Frozen Broccoli Starches: Sweet Potatoes Potatoes Rice Quinoa Specific Meals: Salmon w/ Dill Mayo w/ Frozen Broccoli & Rice Burgers w/ Potato Wedges & Cucumbers Chicken Wings w/ Baked Sweet Potatoes & Green Beans Mix & Match: Tacos - This is such a versatile option. Use what you have on hand! Different veggies like peppers & onions, any ground meat or leftover roast, salsa, avocado, etc. Bowls - This is a great way to use up leftovers! Use rice or quinoa as a base, some meat, beans, veggies and a sauce. Tzatziki or salsa work! Homemade ranch is also a delicious choice. With the kids, I keep the items separate. Stir Fry - Shrimp or other protein, any veggies and rice, quinoa or rice noodles. We have a simple stir fry sauce linked below!
