I am going to be honest and admit that preparing lunch for my kids is my least favorite part of my day.

Often times it’s because I’m not sure what the heck to make them for lunch. Neither one of them really loves sandwiches, so it’s often just scouring through the fridge for ingredients to put on a plate that resemble a balanced meal.

It wasn’t until I was out for dinner and ordered myself a cheese & charcuterie board for my meal that it dawned on me that a mini cheese plate would be the perfect fall back lunch for my kids.

Think about it…a few bites of a variety of different foods is what kids typically end up eating anyway. This way there is only a few bites of anything to begin with, so less waste when they don’t finish their sandwich or fruit cup, etc.
