our question today comes from 2 lovely readers: korie and eliza. they want to know what to put in their kids lunches.
thermos.comi love these little thermos' for hot things, like rice or soup. my kids usually like a "hot" lunch option, so these are excellent for our family. you can also use them for cold stuff too. a tip though, do not wait for these to go on sale. i tried for 2 years, and finally gave up. they are either sold out, or never make it to a sale. maybe you will have better luck though. they are definitely worth their price tag.
the foodnetwork has a bunch of great recipes for stand out lunch items. and to help you pack healthy, start with the healthy eating helper.
what else can we feed them?

i've not had to pack lunch for my kids yet. but i love this question. Here's my input: wraps (remember Lindsey's great wrap post?), snack lunches like apples cheese and crackers, my kids think cookie cutter shaped sandwiches are super fun too.
Vanessa right over her http://inevergrewup.net/?p=271 has loads of great lunch ideas!
You can get these thermoses at Wal-Mart and also in a 2 pack at Land's End. (Just in case you still wanted that option.) I've found that I have to fill the thermos with boiling water, let it sit for 15 minutes, empty the water and then fill it with piping hot soup/pasta with sauce/other leftovers to keep it warm.
I also do wraps, bagels or cheese and crackers to mix things up a bit. My kids go to a charter school without a real cafeteria so I have to send them lunch every school day.
Thanks! I ordered the one's from LandsEnd and I'm so excited!
