Why prep lunches for school?

To make meal planning more consistent and practical in my house, I aim to include four school lunch preps for my two kids in our weekly meal prep rotation. Therefore, we save money and ensure that we are providing a well balanced meal to our children. 

At least two days of the week, the kids are eating a nutritious meal that happens to be fun and festive. Additionally, these meals are simple enough to put together in less than 15 minutes. 

In these lunch preps I try to include a variety of colors as well as a good balance of the essential food groups so that my kids are getting exposure to different foods in a fun and exciting way!

At last, we sure hope you enjoy this fun and festive lunch as much as our little tribe has time and time again. Please leave us a star review and comment if you make this air fryer chick biscuit sandwiches lunch!
