I struggle with lunches. My kids aren't ones to like a bunch of different lunch foods. One year G ate PB&Honey EVERY.DAY. the whole school year. I am talking every day that year he ate a PB&Honey sandwich. I would try to add something different every day but I thought for sure he would tire of the sandwich, he didn't. Now that he is older he will eat cold pizza, warmed fried chicken, turkey/no cheese but still no PB&Jelly. I have two kids that don't care for jelly...say what?? That is insane to me.
Today I stretched my luck and included carrots with some ranch in hopes of making lunches healthier again.
This is me feeling like a failure when it comes to school lunches. My boys have never eaten a hot lunch at school, due to them thinking they are gross. I have to agree, most are but I would think there would be one or two they would like so I could have a break. This is also me putting it out there so I will try harder and include more fruit and veggies and less processed foods.

At least you can send in PB, we can't (no peanut/nut school policy).
Marisa, I would go crazy if I could't send peanut products to school. Our school in PHX was strict but we could still send it in lunches.
