She won't eat meat, so we sometimes have to keep some with us (like at a parade yesterday). Supplement with fruit and veggies? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sandwich-cold-lunches#post-2581026 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 11:08:04 +0000 gingerbebe 2581026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Carrot: cold tortellini tossed in a little olive oil, maybe the fun tricolor kind, with some sliced sausage or cubes of ham. Maybe a fun food pick to pick up the pasta. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sandwich-cold-lunches#post-2580983 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 10:09:35 +0000 mediagirl 2580983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cold fried (I do pan fried) chicken or grilled chicken is great.

So perfect post! Thanks!</p> <p>@whiskers: DS LOVES hard boiled eggs. Didn't think to pack this so thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sandwich-cold-lunches#post-2580902 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 08:39:37 +0000 yoursilverlining 2580902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you just do deconstructed sandwiches and send some deli meat or chicken salad, cheese slices or sticks? My LO generally eats her sandwiches deconstructed still; but will eat all the "parts" if offered. </p> <p>Otherwise, what about a pasta salad with shredded chicken in it for protein? Egg muffins? Empanada or a little homemade calzone (served room temp)? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sandwich-cold-lunches#post-2580878 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 08:19:39 +0000 looch 2580878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you do nut butter? Maybe make some crackers with nut butter sandwiched inside?</p> <p>A rollup of some kind, maybe with hummus? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sandwich-cold-lunches#post-2580876 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 08:17:25 +0000 edelweiss 2580876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>a frittata/omelet type thing? or lots of veggies/fruit with peanut butter for dipping, and cheese? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sandwich-cold-lunches#post-2580871 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 08:15:50 +0000 whiskers 2580871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually send a hard boiled egg for protein. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sandwich-cold-lunches#post-2580868 Tue, 05 Jul 2016 08:12:29 +0000 Mrs. Carrot 2580868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO's daycare is doing a picnic every week where they want kids to bring their own lunches (usually they get lunches there). My kid doesn't eat sandwiches, so I can think of a bunch of sides and things that she will like, but I'm blanking on what I can pack for her that's a little more substantive than just veggies. So far I've got veggies, which she loves, cheese, crackers... would love some other ideas. She's 3 so nothing that involves construction, ideally. </p>
