When Natalie Monson and Amy Roskelley started Super Healthy Kids, they had no idea that their passion to educate families on how to prepare, cook and eat healthier would be such a huge success. With seven children between the two of them (Roskelley has three and Monson has four), they have learned a thing or two about how to make healthy eating a lifestyle.
Monson and Roskelley say that when you are looking for lunch box ideas, consider your fruits and veggies first. Their delicious mini rainbow sandwiches recipe is a quick and easy place to start when looking to prepare and pack a vegan lunch that your kids will be excited to eat.
Bonus: To make a complete rainbow lunch, the duo recommends packing other cut-up fruits and veggies in the rainbow, such as strawberries, carrots, blueberries, sugar snap peas or banana chips.
