Hi There, If Sunday is your day for getting slightly organised for the week ahead, a little lunchbox prep can go a long way. And I really do mean a little! You don't need to spend hours batch cooking. Making just one thing to have ready in the fridge or freezer can make those busy weekday mornings that bit easier. Here are three family-friendly ideas to add to this week's lunchboxes. 🥕 Savoury MuffinsIf you've got kids who prefer savoury snacks, these are such a handy recipe to have up your sleeve. They're loaded with carrot, zucchini and cheese, and are perfect for adding a little variety to the lunchbox. They freeze well too — pop one into the lunchbox frozen and it'll be ready to eat later in the day. 👉 Get the Savoury Muffins recipe here​
🍎 Easy Oat SliceSometimes the simplest baking is the best. This oat slice uses everyday pantry ingredients, is filling, and is wonderfully flexible — you can even change up the dried fruit depending on what your family likes (or what needs using up!). Make a batch, slice it up and freeze some for future lunchboxes. 👉 Get the Easy Oat Slice recipe here​
🍫 Weetbix BallsHere's one for all those Weetbix crumbs lurking at the bottom of the box! These chocolatey little balls are made with simple pantry ingredients including Weetbix, raisins, sunflower seeds and cocoa. They're nut-free, making them a handy option for school lunchboxes, and there's no baking required. Kids can help roll them too, so this is a nice easy one to make together on a Sunday afternoon. 👉 Get the Weetbix Balls recipe here​
Whether you make one recipe or all three, hopefully there's something here that makes next week's lunchboxes just a little easier. Happy Sunday, Stacey |
