It is time to send the kids back to school! I can’t help but feel like it is the most wonderful time of the year. (Does anyone remember that Staples commercial?) After so much missed school from the pandemic, to all of the time we spent away from our friends and routines, it feels like I should step up my game with everything, including school lunches. This list is packed with 20 Delicious Back to School Lunch Box Snacks that the whole family will love.

20 Delicious Back to School Lunch Box Snacks ideas
This year, I vow to not fall into a school lunch rut. I have been searching the internet for the best ideas of tasty things to put in our lunch box rotation and I know you are going to love some of these ideas. You can click thru the link to check out the recipes below.
From little delicious blueberry donuts with blueberry icing, which make a perfect start to the day. To some crispy and crunchy homemade apple chips that are healthy and perfect for snacking on during the day.
These ideas are awesome because they are packed with homemade options that will help your kids avoid a lunch box full of pre-packed snacks. There are a bunch of healthy options like sweet and salty roasted chickpeas and homemade granola. But, lunches should be fun too, so you will love these ideas like unicorn poop cookies and hand pies.
