  • Share on Facebook!

Are you including school lunches in your meal plan? You should be! I’ve been trying to buy fewer packaged snacks and wanted to share these homemade snacks for kids – they’ll love them in their lunch boxes!

If my five year old asks for one. more. snack. I’m going to lose my mind! We’ve actually re-named breakfast and lunch to sneakfast and snunch. Yes, snunch. Don’t even try and tell him it’s not a real word!

For some reason, he’ll eat a bagel for sneakfast, but not for breakfast. Whatever.

As long as he’s eating something healthy, I really don’t care what we call it!

That’s why I love these homemade snacks – they’re much more wholesome (and cheaper!) than any packaged snacks. I put them on my school lunch planner, and I’m good to go!

It’s simply applying a formula to your meals.
I used to be in finance, and I know it doesn’t seem to go together, but it’s how I’ve been able to apply a mathematical approach to keeping meal planning simple. 

If you want to DIY it, do this:

🥩Make 3 columns on a piece of paper.

🥐 The three columns are: main meat (or vegetarian option), side dish or vegetable, and a flavor or style. 

🌽 And then just 2 of each item. 

🥦 And then you’re just going to mix and match them. 

👉🏼 BUTTTTTT… If you don’t want to DIY it and would like to just keep it simple this season (or all year, ha!) check out the Daily Dinner Blueprint meal planning calendar!
