Adult Lunchables

June 23, 2025 Amanda Plott

Remember those nostalgic little trays from childhood, bursting with cheese, crackers, and mystery meat? Ah, Lunchables—pure lunchtime perfection for kids who preferred snack-sized meals over actual cooking. But as adults, many of us have shelved those pre-packed compartments for something more sophisticated, or so we thought.

Enter Adult Lunchables—the smarter, more delicious iteration of the classic that proves snack time isn’t just kid’s play anymore. These aren’t your run-of-the-mill packaged snacks. Think elevated flavor profiles, wholesome ingredients, and a healthy dose of fun. Because hey, just because we’re grown-ups doesn’t mean we have to give up the joy of eating little bites of awesomeness…

Homemade Healthified Pizza 'Lunchable'

August 7, 2015 Amanda Plott

My little one is starting kindergarten here in the next couple of weeks (Ahhh!), and naturally I'm trying to get ready for that. Thankfully for us both, I think it will be a pretty easy transition since she'll be remaining in her current school with her current teacher and familiar faces of her friends that she's been around for a couple of years already.

Unfortunately, I have one of the world's most picky eaters on my hands somehow. She came home from her summer camp pre-kindergarten the other day though and asked about a familiar 'lunchable' that one of the other kids had that day for lunch.

I immediately got excited by that notion and put my head to work to come up with a healthier alternative for her own lunch box...

Lily's Lunch Box (Week 1) - Homemade 'Lunchable'

With the new school year fast approaching, I've decided to do a whole 6 weeks worth of healthy lunch box ideas for the kiddos... and the parents! My little girl is in pre-k this year, and just like all parents out there, I too have struggled with brown-bag lunches.

It doesn't help that my little mini-me is still in the midst of a rather finicky food phase. She is as close to being a vegetarian as she can get without actually being a vegetarian. I can't blame her at all either. I was the same exact way when I was her age.

You reap what you sew, yeah?...
