Sweet bread, Soy Nuggets and Almond Cookies
Soft homemade challah rolls, a sweet chocolate chip almond cookie, juicy fresh fruit, and protein-rich soy nuggets — this lunch strikes a cozy balance between comfort and nutrition. The store-bought nuggets make things easy on busy mornings, while the homemade elements add a personal, wholesome touch.
Challah provides complex carbs and a bit of protein from the enriched dough, the cookie brings healthy fats from almonds (with just enough chocolate to feel like a treat), and the fruit offers fiber, vitamins, and natural sweetness. It’s a kid-friendly mix that feels familiar and fun, with plenty of plant-based goodness tucked into every bite.

Fresh Fruits
I pack firmer fruits in the larger compartments since they hold up well without getting squished or losing their shape. Delicate ones, like raspberries or blackberries, go in a snug little container of their own to keep them from getting smashed in transit. Here as an example, I packed strawberries and bananas. Feel free to keep this category versatile.
