Top tips for a healthy lunch box:
• Always include fresh fruit and vegetables. Vary the selection to keep it interesting.
• Offer a variety of whole grain breads, rolls, pita bread and flat breads.
• Use avocado as a spread instead of butter or margarine.
• Use reduced fat dairy foods. Cheese and yoghurt are ideal.
• Kids need a serve of protein at lunchtime. Ensure you include lean meat, egg, peanut butter, chickpeas or tuna.
• Add a chilled bottle of water and limit juice.
Making lunch can be a fun time for you as a parent and for your child when they open their lunch box to the surprise.
Healthy lunch means a healthy child… have fun with your lunches this year and see how your child will start looking forward to opening their lunchbox!
