We do like muffins, normally I’d go for the chocolate chip kind, but these healthier options are a better choice. These Banana muffins are dairy and nut free and made with coconut oil while these Apple and cinnamon muffins are full of apple goodness!
For savory muffins try these Zucchini and ham muffins or Egg and Bacon Muffins, perfect for adding some protein to a lunch.
Make Ham & Cheese & Veggie Frittatas or Quick & Easy Cheese Scones beforehand, they do keep well and saves you some time too!
Lunch box ideas
Nothing says healthy like a lunch box with fruit. Try to make your own Fruit roll-ups, full of vitamins and really easy with only 3 ingredients.
Add Apple cookies that are made with real apple slices, Apple & Peanut Butter teeth that are just too fun or Strawberry Energy Bites to make a meal healthy without being “boring”.

This Gluten-free Cucumber Sandwich idea is a great alternative to traditional sandwiches, although these Rainbow sandwiches look too pretty to eat!
