A lot of kids will be doing school from home this year and it will still be important to get lunches prepared in advance so that the school day goes smoothly. Let's get our lunch on!

DIY YOGURT PARFAIT KIT

This might be my very favorite idea. Create a little parfait kit that kids can put together themselves. First start with your choice of individual Fage Yogurt flavors. Fage Yogurt are 10/$10 during the Back to School promotion at Publix! Then, add little containers of other options to layer in. 

Here are ideas to include:

  • MaraNatha Almond Butter (on sale for $7.99 during the promotion)
  • Kings Hawaiian Rolls, chunks (2/$7 during the promotion)
  • Chocolate Chips
  • Fresh Fruit
  • Granola

The best part about this hearty idea is that you can switch up the toppings and yogurt flavors to make it new each time! Say goodbye to lunch boredom.

DIPPING SANDWICH KEBABS 

I love a good kebab, but this idea takes it to the next level. Not only are we serving up sandwiches on a stick, but we're also making an easy dip. Just blend Fage Plain Yogurt with ranch dressing mix for the perfect kebab dip! So easy and fun.

Here are some fun ingredients to add to your sandwich kebabs:

  • Land OFrost Premium Sliced Meats (You can buy any one Land O’Frost Premium Sliced Meat, 16-oz and get any one Duke’s Mayonnaise, 18-oz free)
  • Cheese
  • Lettuce Wedge
  • Vegetables like Grape Tomatoes or Cucumbers

Layer them and have fun with it! Use cookie cutters to make fun shapes if you like.

FRUITY SWIRL SANDWICHES

Last but not least, make fun fruity sandwiches. Use swirl bread of your choice and layer on MaraNatha Almond Butter as well as sliced strawberries and sliced bananas. This sounds like dessert, but packs a delicious filling punch that the littles love!

Here are some ingredients to try:

  • Sweet Swirled Bread
  • MaraNatha Almond Butter
  • Sliced Fruits like Strawberries and Bananas
