Here are some quick kid-approved lunch ideas that are easy for kids to assemble!
Pinwheels
These little guys are great for time-saving. Make the filling ahead of time and let the kids assemble the rest!
Filling:
½ cup cream cheese softened
3 tablespoons
mild salsa ¼ cup chopped peppers
½ cup grated cheddar cheese
¼ tsp
chili powder
4 tortillas (6 inch)
Instructions
- Mix cream cheese and salsa with electric mixer; add peppers, grated cheese & chili powder.
- Spread filling onto tortillas.
- Tightly roll tortillas.
- Cut each into five slices, making sure to cut off each end of the tortilla first so it can sit flat. Younger children may need help with using a knife.
Fruit Kabobs
Kids love to play with their food! These fruit kabobs are fun and easy to prepare at any age and delicious to eat! Hit your local party-supply store or the dollar store and grab some wooden skewers and you’re ready to go!
Tip: Part of my routine when I buy groceries is as soon as I get home, I cut up all the fruit I purchased into bite-sized pieces and store them in a container to make assembly for these kabobs (or simply grabbing a healthy snack) quick and easy.
