Healthy kid-friendly lunchbox recipes are the way to success in the Power Your Lunchbox pledge, so I’m here with recipes!
I’m partnering with Produce for Kids to bring you these healthy kid-friendly lunchbox recipes. In exchange, they’ve given me a gift card and their thanks, and all thoughts are my own.
Produce for Kids is encouraging families nationwide to kick off the school year right by pledging to eat a healthier lunch. The campaign runs from August 8 through September 23, 2016, so head over to take the pledge now at PowerYourLunchbox.com.
The Power Your Lunchbox Pledge™ website offers tools and tips for families and classrooms to eat healthier lunches, after-school snacks and weekday dinners this school year.
Here are a few of my favorite healthy kid-friendly recipes, along with some great lunchbox ideas from Produce for Kids.
You can click on each title to get the recipe, or if you prefer, just click on the photos.
For every online pledge that is made, lunchbox-friendly companies supporting Power Your Lunchbox Pledge will make a collective $1 donation to Feeding America®. That money will fund children’s programs such as Kids Café, Backpack program, and Child Hunger Corps.
Since 2014, the Power Your Lunchbox Pledge campaign has raised more than $15,000 for kids’ health and wellness programs across the country.
