School Lunches

For the freshes sandwiches use frozen bread, wrap in paper towel and place in baggie or container.

To keep jelly from running on pbj's put peanut butter on both sides of bread and jelly in the middle.

Hi,
Lunch boxes usually come w/ a thermos - hot or cold. Fill the thermos w/hot soup and put a packet of crackers in the lunchbox and a boxed drink, that's been in your freezer for about 15 minutes prior to school, wrap it in a paper towel or napkin as it will sweat, but also stay nice and cool.

Thanks great ideals from both of you.

I like that idea of frozen bread; unfortunately, my son has the first lunch time slot. 10:30AM. I am not sure his bread would thaw by then.

Just thinking out loud.

It is really no big deal b/c his classroom has a fridge; thus I am not worried about things staying fresh or cold.

Very good ideas, even for those of us who are brining our lunches to work.

I have been recently bringing in the ingredients to make my sandwiches in seperate bags (a huge pain) and making it right before lunch so it doesn't get soggy, but the frozen bread could be the key for me.

I miss the days when I could go to the cafeteria and get a decent lunch for $1.50. My only option now is the food court where a burrito and a small drink was $9 yesterday.
