GET PREPPED

Put Sunday evening to good use by getting ahead with food prep for the week. Hull strawberries, chop vegetables and boil up plenty of eggs for sandwiches and snacks.
If mornings are always a rush, put your lunchboxes together the night before.
Double up on dishes such as pasta, roasted vegetables and couscous - these will all work well for lunchbox leftovers.

KEEP IT INTERESTING

If your little ones are bored of bread add interest with wraps and pittas, or even croissants and naan bread stuffed with their favourite fillings.
Decanting yoghurt into smaller tubs means you can load it with tasty toppings –try banana and honey, or mixed berries and a handful of granola.
Make lunch more fun with stackable crackers, vegetable sticks and pots of dips –they’re healthier than crisps, too.
