Sweet Potato Chili
Give them something warm , healthy and nourishing for their lunch time break! Some schools offer microwaves for reheating,
but it’s a great idea to use an insulated thermos to keep it the perfect temperature for a tummy warming lunch!

Egg Salad
Give a new twist to your egg salad dish!!! I’m going to keep the secret
ingredient to myself, but it’s worth it for the taste!! You could pack the egg salad in a cooled thermos
to keep all the egg ingredients fresh, and then let your child assemble the sandwich! Fun!

these fun sort of lunches! It would have been perfect, and don’t forget to add a packet of

Thermos Pasta
You know my love of the idea of using Thermoses for lunches. I grew up that way
and it’s the perfect solution to warm lunches in schools that don’t have other
alternatives to warm lunches! Not to mention – PASTA FOR LUNCH, YUM!

Lime Chicken Pasta Salad
A combination of citrus and tangy tastes into a salad recipe!!! Keeping the chicken packed
separate from the lettuce portion until their lunch time will help keep the lettuce fresh and crisp.
What a yummy idea for a kid’s lunch!! (and an adult’s lunch as well!)
