It’s a food kids love and will eat without a fight. #Ad It’s also one that allows them to be independent because they can “make” it themselves. And for us (and thousands of other families like mine), Lunchables has been a true sanity-saver!I remember eating Lunchables as a kid. The portions were perfect, and I loved that my mom would let me take one to school or grab one any time I wanted on the weekends. It was always a special treat, and anyone who brought a Lunchables to class earned instant celebrity status. I ruled the 2nd grade, for sure! Haha.
Back then, all I really cared about was the taste (and once they rolled out with the Pizza Lunchables, I also valued creativity!). Little did I realize how much I would later appreciate the convenience, variety, and ease of mealtime planning once I became a mama myself.
Especially during this pandemic, Lunchables has helped me and my mommy friends become more stress-free in this chaotic life, something I value so much at the moment where life is so unpredictable. Now, I can crack open a Lunchables instead of cooking a whole meal and know my kids will be full and satisfied. It’s a win/win!Here are some of our favorite Lunchables varieties and why we love them so much!
Lunchables Classic Ham and Cheddar
Nia’s favorite Lunchables is the Classic Ham and Cheddar with the vanilla creme cookies. She’s usually diligent about saving the cookies for last, even though it’s her favorite part. This one is also a good source of protein, iron, and calcium.
Lunchables Pizza with Pepperoni
I remember when Lunchables Pizza first came out, and it was a lunchtime game changer! This one is Knox’s favorite because he loves the idea of crafting his own little pizzas. It comes with a generous helping of mini pepperonis and cheese, as well as three crusts that ensure a filling lunch. What I love about these pizzas is that they taste great, hot or cold.
Lunchables Turkey and Cheese
Another classic Lunchables, we eat a fair amount of the Turkey and Cheese variety in our house. My kids love to experiment with layering different patterns of cracker, meat, and cheese to see just how high they can stack them! You can get this one and the Classic Ham and Cheddar with just the main fixings or with cookies. Or, grab one that comes with a Capri Sun for a complete meal!
Lunchables Bacon and Cheese Brunchables
Lunchables has moved into the world of brunch with their line of Brunchables. We tried the Bacon and Cheese variety, which comes with a blueberry muffin and two flatbreads to make breakfast sandwiches. This one is packed with protein and makes a great late breakfast or mid-morning snack.
Also in this product line are a Sausage and Cheese and a Ham and Cheese option.
There you have it: our top choices for Lunchables that make everybody smile! What’s your favorite Lunchables meal?
