For your children to get the most out of school, it is necessary for them to have a lot of energy and for both their bodies and minds to be alert. To achieve this, a good diet is essential, which includes a delicious and nutritious lunch. To give you some ideas that you can implement in August, here is our top 5: ideal lunches for back-to-school. Chicken Wrap This lunch is very quick and nutritious. It consists of a burrito-style roll filled with chicken for protein, panela cheese for fats and dairy, avocado for Omega 3, and tomato and spinach for minerals and vitamins that will help them pay attention in all their classes. Pair this lunch with a delicious juice or fruit water, and your kids will have a 100% balanced meal. Bread with Fruit Jam This recipe is even easier and is ideal for kids as it includes multigrain bread, jam, banana, raspberries, blackberries, almonds, and sesame seeds. The fruits provide antioxidants and vitamins, while the bread and jam give energy for the day, and sesame will help with their digestive process. If you can include a hard-boiled or poached egg, you will then have protein and a complete menu. Vegetable Patties How to make kids eat more vegetables? Frying them is a good alternative. Don't worry, this recipe includes potato, carrot, zucchini, and egg, so it has protein for your kids' muscles and vegetables to fill them with minerals and vitamins. Frying them will give a crispy touch that your kids will love; just make sure to use a healthy oil, like extra virgin olive oil. Turkey Sandwich The sandwich is the classic lunch, and it's no coincidence. Carbohydrates in the bread, protein in the turkey breast, plus all the vitamins and minerals from lettuce, tomato, and the detoxifying power of avocado make it an ideal dish to keep your children healthy and alert while they prepare for school. Fruit and Vegetable Skewers The great thing about this recipe, besides being very easy, is that it can be tailored to your children's individual tastes. It involves cutting sticks of their favorite fruits and vegetables and pairing them with either cottage cheese or honey so they can enjoy them as a snack during recess. Remember to always accompany with water and never with soda to avoid unnecessary sugar.
