**We're replaying the best of back to school-- in this episode, I'm sharing my tried and true school lunch system we've been using for years and years (my kids are 13 and 9). Happy Back to School!**…
There are a few things you wanna keep in mind when creating a school lunch system that works for you because this is our school lunch system, and I'm gonna give you some tips for how to create your own school lunch system, but ultimately, it needs to work for you.
So number one, what are you going to pack? Otherwise known as what combination of foods will keep your kids satisfied, and what are those foods? Number two, when are you going to pack them, or who is going to pack them, for that matter? And number three, how are you going to pack them? What equipment are you going to use? So today I wanna go into each one of these areas.
The system that we use or that you use for lunch packing is based on your answers to these questions.
Yours might very well be a little different depending on your situation or your kids' preferences.
But like I said, I'll give you our template, and then you can plug and play for your family.
