NO SANDWICH SCHOOL LUNCH BOX IDEAS

I often hear moms asking other moms for ideas of no sandwich school lunch ideas – and it does not surprise me. Growing up, I did not like sandwiches.  I think it started after having the same bologna sandwich for my elementary years.  By the time I got to junior high, I was just done!  Even to this day, sandwiches are not my favorite food.  My daughter has taken after me and prefers non-sandwich lunches packed in her lunch bag.  However, it can sometimes be hard to pack a school lunch with no sandwich.
