If you’re looking for simple, lunch box-friendly, kid-approved sandwiches that require minimal prep time, this list is for you! Many of these sandwiches can be made in advance and frozen… and ALL of them can be eaten cold or at room temperature.

This “recipe” is so simple that I don’t think it can even be called a recipe. However, these roll-ups are something fun and a little different to include in those back-to-school lunches. They also are an attractive, can’t-go-wrong addition to any table of finger foods.

Okay, so I know there’s a big debate over whether or not corn bread should be sweet or not. If you’re in the camp that says it should not be sweet, then this recipe probably isn’t for you.

I made Bean & Cheese Burritos for the freezer yesterday. These were so simple to put together — and quite inexpensive, too.

They aren’t anything spectacular and, if you’re a foodie, you just might be appalled that I’m posting such a crazily simple recipe. But I’m all about simple — especially when it comes to quick and easy lunches!

Guest post from Michelle of The Willing Cook As I’ve said before, coming up with something original and satisfying for lunch while still remaining food allergy-safe is not always an easy task. The most common lunch menu in our home is leftovers. It is nice, though, to have other lunch options for those times when leftovers [...]
