Pack It Up: Breakfast, Lunch & Snack Box Ideas for Busy Mamas
Real food does not have to be complicated... & it definitely does not have to look like a sad desk lunch.
This collection of 50 recipes & box ideas was curated for Mamas, families, & anyone who wants simple, satisfying, real-food options for breakfast, lunch, & snack time, without the corn, soy, or stress. Whether you are packing for a school day, a road trip, a work week, or just trying to get something nourishing on the table without a lot of fuss, this collection has you covered from morning to midday.
The box ideas range from from-scratch recipes to semi-assembled combinations using quality store-bought staples like deli meat, meat sticks, or crackers, because real life calls for both. Many recipes include notes for making them gluten-free, peanut-free, dairy-free, or nut-free, so you can adapt to your family's needs without starting from scratch.
What's inside:
10 Breakfast Boxes featuring everything from bacon & eggs to smoked salmon bagels & granola parfaits in a box
5 Granola Recipes you can make from scratch or use as inspiration for store-bought swaps, including grain-free & paleo options
17 Lunch & Snack Boxes + 1 Baba Ghanoush Recipe spanning everything from chickpea salads & egg salad to smoked salmon, tuna, chicken, & veggie-forward options
7 Hummus Snack Boxes with fun, mix-and-match combinations perfect for all ages
10 Hummus Recipes made from scratch, from classic roasted red pepper & golden beet to spicy sweet potato, turmeric, & beyond
Breakfast boxes double beautifully as lunch boxes. Snack boxes work for adults just as much as kids. And yes, the hummus section alone might just become your new obsession. 😄
Every recipe in this collection is free from:
Corn & corn derivatives
Soy
Gluten (with gluten-free notes throughout)
Peanuts (with peanut-free notes throughout)
Many recipes also include notes for dairy-free & nut-free adaptations.
Because feeding your people well should feel doable... not like a second job.
